Figure 5From: Autophagy in periodontitis patients and gingival fibroblasts: unraveling the link between chronic diseases and inflammation Indices of cell viability and apoptosis in control and lipopolysaccharide-treated fibroblasts after autophagy arrest by 3-methyl adenine (20 mM). Results are expressed as mean ± SD of three independent experiments. *P < 0.01 between control and LPS-treated fibroblasts. CTL: control: LPS: lipopolysaccharide.Back to article page
