Effects of EGCG on HNE-induced A549 cell viability.

(A)Molecular structure of EGCG. (B) HNE promoted the viability of NSCLC A549 cells. The cells treated with the indicated concentrations of HNE for 24 h were assessed for viability via the MTS assay. The data represent the means ± SEM, n = 3. **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001 vs the non-HNE-treated group (control). (C) EGCG did not affect the viability of A549 cells. The cells treated with the indicated concentrations of EGCG for 24 h were assessed for viability using the MTS assay. (D) EGCG did not affect the viability of the HNE (10 nM)-induced A549 cells.
