The Neuroprotective Effects of Brazilian Green Propolis on Neurodegenerative Damage in Human Neuronal SH-SY5Y Cells
Figure 1
Effects of methanol extracts of propolis on the H2O2-induced toxicity in SH-SY5Y cells. (a) Cell viability in SH-SY5Y cells pretreatment with different concentrations of propolis for 48 hours. (b) The effect of pretreatment with methanol extracts of propolis for 2 h on H2O2 exposed SH-SY5Y cells. Each column and bar represent mean ± SEM ( each). An asterisk indicates a statistically significant difference from the indicated group value (, ). (c) The morphological changes of SH-SY5Y cells with or without pretreatment with propolis (10 μg/mL) after expose to H2O2 for 24 h. Scale bar = 20 μm.
