Effect of astaxanthin (AX) on cell proliferation. (a) When cells were preventatively treated with AX (Pre-AX), proliferation increased significantly compared with that of control group from 1 h of cultivation to 12 h (*p<0.05) (n = 4). (b) When AX was administered to the cells as a curative treatment following inflammation stimulation (Post-AX), proliferation increased significantly compared with that of the control group from 12 h of cultivation to 24 h (**p<0.01) (n = 4).
