32:6n3 and 34:6n3 ameliorate UOS-induced primary human RPE cell death. (a) Untreated (control) RPE cells. RPE cells underwent UOS for 16 hours (b-f). When 32:6n3 or 34:6n3 were added, cell death was prevented (c,d,f). Typical fields of cell cultures are represented in the right column. Nuclei are labeled with Hoechst staining, and the dead cells are highlighted in green. These were separated using an intensity threshold algorithm and counted using an Image J macro (left column)70. (e) Quantification of live (control cells; black curve) and dead (UOS cells, red curve) cells was based on nuclear size70. Error bars, SEM; *p < 0.05.
