Figure 2
AS-IV abolished the influence of UA on Min6 cell viability and apoptosis. (a) Cell viability was evaluated by the MTT analysis. (b) Caspase-3 activity was determined in cells from the different groups. (c) Flow cytometry analysis was applied to quantify cell apoptosis. (d) Quantification of apoptotic cells. Data are expressed as mean ± SD. Statistical differences among groups were analyzed by one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s post hoc tests. compared to the control group; vs. UA group; and .
