Figure 1. MGO concentration-dependently induced cell injury in the cultured HBMEC.

(A) HBMEC were incubated with different concentration of MGO (100 µmol/l, 500 µmol/l, 1 mmol/l, 2 mmol/l and 5 mmol/l) for 24 h. (B) HBMEC were incubated with MGO (2 mmol/l) for 3, 6, 12, 24 h. Cell viability was determined by MTT assay. ^*p<0.05 versus control group. n = 3 repeats.
