The Importance of Myeloperoxidase in Apocynin-Mediated NADPH Oxidase Inhibition

Figure 2

The effect of HRP and azide on apocynin inhibition of superoxide anion production by PBMCs and PMN. (a) PBMC were preincubated with 100 μM of apocynin and 400 nm of HRP for 15 min. (b) PMN cells were preincubated with 100 μM of apocynin and 5.0 mM of sodium azide for 15 min. Percentage of inhibition was calculated in comparison to the control group (absence of apocynin). Data represents at least four separated experiments (* 𝑃 < 0 . 0 5 , ** 𝑃 < 0 . 0 1 , Mann-Whitney test).
