Vasoprotective Effects of Hyperoside against Cerebral Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury in Rats: Activation of Large-Conductance Ca2+-Activated K+ Channels

Figure 5

Effects of Hyp on OGD/R-induced injury in primary VSMCs. (a) Primary VSMCs were identified by immunofluorescence and morphology. Scale bars = 100 µm. (b) VSMCs were coincubated with various concentrations of Hyp (1–1,000 μM) for 24 hr, and cytotoxicity was detected by an MTT assay. (c) VSMCs were pretreated with Hyp (10, 33, and 100 μM) or nimodipine (10 μM) during OGD/R, and cell viability was calculated by an MTT method. Data are mean  SD (n = 5). , versus control group; #, ## versus OGD/R group.
