Effects of MTE on erythrocyte ROS content and FSC under different glucose concentrations

(a) ROS in erythrocytes was more induced by MTE under high glucose (11.1 mmol/L) environment than under low glucose (2.8 mmol/L). (b) FSC levels of erythrocytes were much more stimulated by MTE under high glucose environment than under low glucose. Data are expressed as mean±SD (n=3). ^* P<0.05, ^** P<0.01 vs. control group (no MTE) for each glucose concentration
