STS treatment decreases apoptosis in ARPE-19 cells under oxidative stress. (a) Quantification of the cell death rate by flow cytometry using V-FITC/PI labelling in each group taken by flow cytometry images. Untreated cells were used as a positive control. (b) The accompanied histogram of V-FITC/PI measurements of apoptotic cells. The experiment was repeated 3 times in each group. Data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA and differences between means were considered statistically significant when P < 0.05, Bonferroni correction of P-value was applied in multiple comparison. There was no statistical difference between control, H2O2 + STS and H2O2 + 3MA in (b), the other groups showed statistically significant differences.
