The effect of glucose and mannitol on cell viability. (a) The cell viability after 48 h glucose treatment. (b) The cell viability after 72 h glucose treatment. PC12 cells were treated with increasing concentrations of glucose or mannitol from 50–150 mM for 48 h and 72 h. Cell viability was measured by the MTT assay. The cell viability of each group was standardized to the control group. Data are expressed as the mean ± SEM, n = 4. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, and ***P < 0.001 vs. the control.
