Inhibition of the -induced DNA condensation. (a) H9c2 cells were pretreated with 0, 50, and 100  g/mL OGE for 3 and then treated with for 3 hrs. After the treatments, the H9c2 cells were DAPI stained and photographed by fluorescence microscopy (200x). The cells which showed DNA condensation are indicated by arrow. (b) Incidence of DNA condensation of H9c2 cells. Data is presented as mean S.D., , compared with control; compared with treatment alone.
