Synergistic effects of EGCG and myricetin against FDP-induced cellular damage. (A) Combined protective effects of EGCG and myricetin on cell survival under FDP treatment. (B) Synergistic ROS-scavenging effects of EGCG and myricetin in FDP-stimulated BEAS-2B cells. (C) Effects of green tea catechins and flavonols on the morphology of FDP-treated cells. The results are shown as the means ± SDs of the values obtained in 3 independent experiments (N = 3). *p < 0.05 and **p < 0.001 compared to the FDP-treated group; ***p < 0.01 compared to the 10 μM alone treatment vs. 5 μM combined treatment; #p < 0.001 compared to the vehicle control group. Scale bars, 200 μm.
