Figure 1

Cell viability. Chondrocytes viabilities were measured using trypan blue method after 24 hours of treatment with the experimental drugs. As the figure indicates, none of the drugs had an effect on cell viability as compared to the control group. The dotted line denotes normal chondrocytes untreated with TNF-α or drugs.
