Assessment of protective efficacy of hydroxyapatite–A. indica (HA-AI) composite on LPS-induced nuclear damage and apoptosis in RAW 264.7 cells. (A) Phase contrast and fluorescent microscopic images depicting the protective efficacy of HA-AI composite on LPS-induced nuclear damage by DAPI staining. (B) Dose-dependent protective efficacy of HA-AI composite on LPS-induced apoptosis by DAPI staining. (C–E) Dose-dependent restoring efficacy of HA-AI composite on LPS-induced depletion of caspases (3/7, 8, and 9). The experiments were performed individually in six replicates and achieved results were stated as mean ± standard deviation. The data were statistically evaluated by one-way ANOVA following Tukey’s post hoc multiple comparison test. The statistical variance among the experimental groups was measured as significant at p < 0.05. The columns with different alphabets were significant within the respective study.
