Preconditioning and Acute Effects of Flavonoids in Protecting Cardiomyocytes from Oxidative Cell Death

Figure 9

Protection by pretreatment with two concentrations of catechin and epigallocatechin gallate 1 h prior to incubation with t-buOOH. Cells were treated with 50 or 100 μM catechin or epigallocatechin gallate for 1 h. Then, cells were treated with 400 μM t-buOOH for 24 h before counting live cells. Data were expressed as the percent protection. *Shows   versus  non-treated t-buOOH group.
