In this study, we aimed to determine the toxic effect of curcumin on A549 lung cancer cells and to show how this effect is reflected in morphology. Firstly, the toxic doses of curcumin against A549 lung cancer cells were determined via MTT and neutral red cytotoxicity tests by using the doses of 6.25, 12.5, 25, 50, 100, 200 and 400 μM. The morpholo...
