HBE1 cells were pretreated with 5 μM resveratrol for 24 h before being treated with/without CSE for 4 and 24 h; and the caspase activity was measured as described in Methods. Values are mean ± SE of three experiments.

P<0.05 compared with vehicle control (ethanol) of 0% CSE treatment;

P<0.05 compared with vehicle control (ethanol) of same CSE exposure. Cas 3, caspase 3; cas 9, caspase 9; R, resveratrol; 0, vehicle control (ethanol).
