Figure 3

Combined effect of 60 μM α-TOS and 2 μM SSe on lipid peroxidation after (a) 16 hours and (c) 48 hours and on reduced glutathione levels after (b) 16 hours and (d) 48 hours. Combined effect of 60 μM α-TOS and 10 μM SSe on lipid peroxidation after (e) 16 hours and (g) 48 hours and on reduced glutathione levels after (f) 16 hours and (h) 48 hours in MCF7 cells. Results of MDA and rGSH are expressed as means ± SD of 5 independent experiments ( for MDA and for rGSH). Statistical significance of results was analyzed by one-way ANOVA using Tukey’s multiple comparison test. “A” significantly different from the respective control at ; “B” significantly different from respective α-TOS at ; “C” significantly different from respective SSe at .
