Figure 4: Effects of CK or Rh1 alone or in combination on cell proliferation and apoptosis in HSCs.
From: Ameliorative effects of Compound K and ginsenoside Rh1 on non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in rats
(a) Cells were cultured in the presence of Rosiglitazone (RSG), CK, Rh1 or the combination of CK and Rh1 for 6 hours, before they were subjected to MTT assay. All results are the means ± SD of three independent experiments. *P < 0.05 versus control group. (b) Flow cytometric plots show cells in live, early apoptosis and late apoptosis when cells were treated with RSG, PNS, CK, Rh1 or the combination of CK and Rh1 for 6 hours. (c) Bar graphs show the percentages of early apoptotic cells. Data are the mean ± SD of three independent experiments. aP < 0.05 versus control group, bP < 0.05 versus PNS group.
