Apoptosis of Platelets Inhibited By Herba Sarcandrae Extract through the Mitochondria Pathway

Figure 4

The expressions of Bax, Bad, Bid, and Caspase-9 in platelets. Total flavonoids (0.2 g/kg) were given to the mice in flavone group. Mice in CSA group were given 0.027 g/kg cyclosporine daily. All mice were intragastrically administered once a day for 3 consecutive days. The expression levels of Bax (a), Bad (b), Bid (c), and Caspase-9 (d) in platelets were detected by flow cytometry. < 0.05 compared with the normal control group; < 0.05 compared with the BMF group; < 0.05 compared with the CSA group.
