Figure 1. Dopamine inhibited cell viability and altered cell morphology.

Figure 1

(A, B) Human glioblastoma U87MG cells, U251 cells and normal human astrocytes (SVG p12) were treated with dopamine in normal culture medium at the indicated doses. (A) The changes in cell morphology and proliferation in U87MG cells and normal human astrocytes treated with dopamine for 48 h were observed, and the cells were photographed using a microscope fitted with digital camera. (B) At 48 hours after treatment, cell viability was determined by MTT assay. The data are presented as the mean ± SD of three tests. (*P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, significant differences between the dopamine treatment and DMSO vehicle control groups).
