a immunoblotting and densitometry of ASCT2 knockdown in the HeLa cell line; b, c metabolic activity (b) and viability (c) of ASCT2 knockdown in HeLa cells 6 h after plasma exposure; d viability of HeLa cells following pre-treatment with the ASCT2 inhibitor V9302 (10 µM), followed by 6 h plasma treatment. Data are mean ± SEM derived from three independent experiments with *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01 and ***p < 0.001. Statistical analysis was done using one-way ANOVA with Tukey post-test for multiple comparisons, or two-tailed t-test. Scale bar is 100 μm.
