Expression of proinflammatory cytokines Il-6 and TNF-α. The expression of Interleukin 6 (IL-6) (a) and Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) (b) was evaluated in H2O2-senescent ADSCs exposed for 12, 24, or 48h to ascorbic acid (CTRL+, blue bar) or to Lab by-P (yellow bar) or Ind by-P (red bar). The mRNA levels for each gene were expressed as fold of change (2−∆∆Ct) of mRNA levels observed in untreated ADSCs (CTRL-, black bar) defined as 1 (mean ±SD; n=6) and normalized to Glyceraldehyde-3-Phosphate-Dehidrogenase (GAPDH). Data are represented as mean± SD referring to the control ().
