MTT cell viability assay. a Dose-dependent cytotoxicity—SH-SY5Y cells were treated with different concentrations of CSSS, C-SLNs, Tf-C-SLNs, SS, and B-SLNs. The extent of growth inhibition was measured after 24 h by performing MTT assay. Data are represented as mean ± SD (n = 3). *p < 0.005, Tf-C-SLN vs. C-SLN and CSSS; **p < 0.05, Tf-C-SLN vs. C-SLN and CSSS; #p < 0.05, C-SLN vs. CSSS. b Time-dependent cytotoxicity—SH-SY5Y cells were treated with 4 μM dose of CSSS, C-SLN, and Tf-C-SLN. The extent of growth inhibition was measured after predetermined time points of 3, 6, 12, 24, and 48 h by performing MTT assay. Data are represented as mean ± SD (n = 3). *p < 0.05, Tf-C-SLNs vs. CSSS and C-SLN; #p < 0.05, C-SLN vs. CSSS
