Fig 2. Dental monomers induced over-production of ROS and depletion of GSH.

Fig 2

A. Intracellular ROS levels in hDPCs exposed to dental monomers (1mM HEMA, 5mM MMA or 1mM TEGDMA) in the absence or presence of 10 mM NAC for 6 h. B–D. Contents of GSH, GSSG and total GSH in hDPCs after exposing to dental monomers without or with NAC for 24 h. Data represent the mean ± SD of three independent experiments (n = 3). *P < 0.05 vs. control group; #P < 0.05 vs. dental monomer-treated cells by one-way ANOVA. NS means no significance.
