From: Pinocembrin protects against β-amyloid-induced toxicity in neurons through inhibiting receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE)-independent signaling pathways and regulating mitochondrion-mediated apoptosis

Figure 9

Pinocembrin inhibited mitochondrion-induced apoptosis. (A) Fluorescent images of B cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2), cytochrome c and nucleus in the same field. (B,C) Values of Mean_AvgInten of Bcl-2 and cytochrome c collected from the respective fluorescent channels using the same optical field. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM, n = 6, ***P < 0.001 vs control, ## P < 0.01, ### P < 0.001 vs copper. (D) Activity of caspase 3 and caspase 9 of human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells overexpressing the Swedish mutant form of human APP (APPsw) in the presence of copper. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM, n = 4, ***P < 0.001 vs control, ## P < 0.01, ### P < 0.001 vs copper.
