Scutellarin promotes NSC viability and growth

(A) NSCs were incubated with scutellarin (SCU) at various concentrations for 48 hr. NSC viability was assessed using the MTT assay (n=5 per group). **P<0.01, *P<0.05 vs vehicle; ## P<0.01 vs 30 µM SCU

(B) Bright-field images of dissociated neurospheres cultured for 48 hr in passaging medium.

(C) The proportion of total neurospheres with diameters >100 μm was counted. *P<0.05 vs vehicle

(D) Relative growth of NSCs (n=5 per group). *P<0.05 vs vehicle
