The effects of the CA, CGA, Arc, CA + CGA, CA + Arc, CGA + Arc, and CA + CGA + Arc treatments on the general cell morphology, as well as the mitochondria and nucleus in MCF-7 breast cancer and MCF-10A normal cells, was analyzed by fluorescence, as well as phase–contrast and brightfield microscopy. The gene discussed is ARC; the disease is breast carcinoma.
