LeX mimetics enhance neuronal survival of stressed cerebellar granule cells. Bar diagram shows the percentage of viable cerebellar granule cells (mean + SEM, 60 images captured from 15 wells carried out in five independent experiments) treated with different concentrations of the linear LeX glycomimetic peptide or with different concentrations of the LeX mimetic compounds and subsequently stressed with 20 μM H2O2. The hash sign indicates significant differences between the unstressed group (control, − H2O2) and stressed group (control, + H2O2). Asterisks signify differences between the stressed group (control, + H2O2) and compound-treated groups as determined by oneway ANOVA with Fisher’s PLSD test (F = 1.61, p <0.0329; PLSD *p <0.05)
