Static Magnetic Field Attenuates Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Inflammation in Pulp Cells by Affecting Cell Membrane Stability

Figure 8

Representation of the optical microscope images of DPC cultures. (a) Sham-exposed DPCs showed fusiform to polygonal shape in a monolayer distribution. (b) There was no difference in cell shape or growth pattern in DPCs exposed to 0.4 T SMF. (c) When challenged with LPS, cell shape changed from fusiform to round, and much suspended debris appeared. (d) However, LPS-challenged DPCs cotreated with 0.4 T SMF had a lower level of shape disorder and suspended debris.
