The Protective Effect of Melatonin on Neural Stem Cell against LPS-Induced Inflammation

Figure 4

Immunofluorescent staining to check SOX2 expression. LPS-stimulated NSCs show decreased expression of SOX2 compared to the normal control NSCs. Melatonin promotes the SOX2 expression of NSCs and also melatonin slightly increases the SOX2 expression in LPS-stimulated NSCs. 4′,6-Diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI): blue, SOX2: green, and scale bar: 200 μm.
