Neuroprotective Effects of Alpha-Mangostin on MPP+-Induced Apoptotic Cell Death in Neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y Cells

Figure 8

Effect of alpha-mangostin on cleaved caspase-3 protein expression in MPP+-treated SH-SY5Y cells. Cells were treated with 10 μM alpha-mangostin (α-M), 1000 μM MPP+, or the combination of α-M and MPP+ for 24 hours. Cleaved caspase-3 was detected with Western blotting. The density of bands was analyzed in comparison with that of β-actin. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM (). .
