Reversal of Myoblast Aging by Tocotrienol Rich Fraction Posttreatment

Figure 5

Effects of SIPS and TRF on the proliferation capacity and DNA synthesis of myoblasts. SIPS significantly induced the decrement in proliferation capacity and DNA synthesis of myoblasts. Pretreated and posttreated cells with TRF failed to maintain the proliferation capacity and DNA synthesis of cells compared to the young control ( ). However, posttreated cells with TRF significantly increased the proliferation capacity and DNA synthesis of the myoblasts compared to SIPS-induced cells ( ). Data are shown as mean ± SEM. * compared to young control. # compared to SIPS-induced group.
