Annexin V-fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)/PI flow cytometry analysis of DRG neurons after treatment with methylmercury for 24 h. (A) Fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) using flow cytometry of cultured rat DRG neurons pretreated with or without necrostatin-1 (1 µM) for 1 h and then treated with methylmercury (0.5 µM) for 24 h. (B) Quantitative analysis of the flow cytometry data. Values are means ± standard error (S.E.) of three technical replicates. ** Significantly different from the control, p < 0.01; ## significantly different from the treatment with methylmercury alone, p < 0.01. The data in A are representative of several independent experiments.
