Resveratrol induces adventitial fibroblast apoptosis. (A) Flow cytometric analysis of cell apoptosis following resveratrol treatment. Q4 represents the ratio of apoptotic cells. (B) Statistical analysis of the results. High-dose resveratrol induced cell apoptosis of adventitial fibroblasts (control, vs. 80 µmol/l group; *P<0.05). This pro-apoptotic effect was partially reversed by siRNA transfection. The apoptotic ratio was significantly decreased in the 80 µmol/l+siRNA group, compared with the 80 µmol/l resveratrol group (*P<0.05). There was a significant difference between the 80 µmol/l+siRNA group, compared with the control group (*P<0.05). Res, resveratrol; siRNA, small interfering RNA; SIRT1, sirtuin 1; PE, phycoerythrin; FITC, fluorescein isothiocyanate.
