Effects of luteoloside on the cell viability of nucleus pulposus (NP) cells (A) Chemical structure of luteoloside. (B) The cytotoxic effect of 20 µM luteoloside on NP cells in a time-dependent manner using a Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay. (C) The cytotoxic effect of luteoloside on NP cells was determined at various concentrations for 24 h using a CCK-8 assay. (D) The cytotoxic effect of luteoloside on NP cells was determined at various concentrations with interleukin 1 beta (IL-1β) stimulation using a CCK-8 assay. (E) Morphological changes of NP cells treated with luteoloside in a dose dependent manner with IL-1β stimulation (original magnification × 200, scale bar: 50 µm). All experiments were performed at least three times, and the data in the figures represent the mean ± S.D. Significant differences between groups are indicated as **P < 0.01, *P < 0.05.
