Ganoderma lucidum Protects Dopaminergic Neuron Degeneration through Inhibition of Microglial Activation

Figure 4

GL protects against LPS or CF induced production of superoxide in a dose-dependent fashion. Cultures were treated with GL at indicated concentration 30 min prior to exposure with 0.25  g/ml LPS or 150  g/ml CF. Superoxide generation was measured with the SOD assay kit-WST. Data are expressed as fold increase of control group and presented as means ± SD of two experiments performed in triplicate. * compared with LPS only treated cultures and ** compared with CF only treated cultures.
