SOD2 Mediates Amifostine-Induced Protection against Glutamate in PC12 Cells

Figure 2

Amifostine exposure increased SOD2 activity in PC12 cells. (a) Amifostine did not induce a significant effect on SOD1 activity (). (b) Amifostine increased SOD2 activity. PC12 cells were exposed to 500 μM amifostine (Ami) for 24 h (). SOD1 and SOD2 activities were evaluated by using a SOD assay kit. Results are means ± SD, , and NS: no significance.
