Results related to the DNA damage (DD) and Apoptosis (Ap) of cells before and 24 hours after incubation in each study group
| Groups | DNA Damage | Apoptosis | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| DD0 (mean±SD) | DD24 (mean±SD) | P value | Ap0 (mean±SD) | Ap24 (mean±SD) | P value | |
| PT | 49±31 | 20±15 | =0.0002* | 1.8±2.8 | 18.3±27.8 | <0.0001* |
| C+ | 20±16 | 17±15 | >0.25 | 1.3±1.1 | 1.6±1.4 | >0.20 |
| C- | 18±15 | 14±13 | >0.15 | 1.4±1.3 | 2±1.7 | >0.03 |
DD0 and Ap0 indicate before, and DD24 and Ap24 represent 24 hours after incubation at 37ºC and 5% CO2. DNA damage and apoptosis are based on arbitrary unit (AU) and the number of apoptotic cells/500 cells, respectively. Standard deviation (SD).
