Green Tea Polyphenols Attenuated Glutamate Excitotoxicity via Antioxidative and Antiapoptotic Pathway in the Primary Cultured Cortical Neurons

Figure 2

TP attenuated glutamate induced cell death in the neurons. Photomicrographs and histograms and show that TP inhibited glutamate induced apoptosis as assessed by TUNEL assay and there is no marked influence of TP alone on the number of died cells in the neurons. At least three independent experiments were performed. Data shown represent one experiment. /group. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by Tukey post hoc multiple comparisons tests, . compared to the control group. compared to the Glu group.
