Exosome bioactive content of Cistus creticus under salt stress and its anticancer effects on pancreatic cancer cell lines
Exosomes from plants grown at rising salt levels were applied to pancreatic cancer cell lines to see what they do.
Aim: To determine the bioactive content of the exosomes of the pink rock rose (Cistus creticus) grown at different levels of salt stress, and to test what that content does to pancreatic cancer cell lines.
Methods: Plants are grown in nutrient solution culture at increasing salinity, and their growth and physiological responses are followed. The extracts and exosomes obtained are applied to pancreatic cancer cell lines to assess their anticancer effects.
Scope: Carried out under the TÜBİTAK 1002 Short Term R&D Funding Programme and completed in 2023.
