(D) Representative micrographs of positive TUNEL staining (indicative of cell apoptosis) in liver tissues obtained from rats subjected to different treatment conditions. The cellular apoptosis rate was calculated by Image-Pro Plus 6.0 and represented as apoptosis rate. The results are represented as mean ± SEM. n = 8. *P < 0.05 vs LPS. #P < 0.05 vs LPS+cis-SG+pioglitazone as determined by ANOVA
