Effects of isoflavones against LPS-induced oxidative stress in BV-2 murine microglia. Isoflavones exhibited no cytotoxic effects in murine microglia (A). Isoflavones (20 µM and 10 µM) reduce nitric oxide production, as determined by the Griess Reagent (B). Isoflavones inhibited the production of the pro-inflammatory cytokines, TNF-α (C) and IL-6 (D), in murine microglia. All data expressed as mean ± standard error (n ≥ 3), significance was reported by analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed with Dunnett multiple comparison testing. Significance as compared with control p ≤ 0.0001 (####); as compared with LPS, p ≤ 0.03 (*), p ≤ 0.002 (**), p ≤ 0.0002 (***) and p ≤ 0.0001 (****).
