Table 3. Measurement of mouse pituitary cell apoptosis.
Groups | Alive cells | Necrotic cells | Apoptotic cells |
pshRNA-2 | 81.62±1.47** | 7.39±0.74 | 8.77±0.51* |
pshRNA-negative | 87.76±1.16 | 5.08±0.56 | 3.58±0.96 |
PBS | 84.98±1.23 | 6.40±0.65 | 5.80±2.09 |
There were significantly less apoptotic cells and more vital cells in the pShRNA-2 group compared to those of pShRNA-negative and PBS group respectively. [Means±SE, n = 3].
All results were evaluated by One-way ANOVA,
[*] P<0.05
[**] P<0.01 indicates level of significance in columns.
