BC protects against AGE-induced cell death. (A) H9c2 cells were treated with series doses of BC for 24 h. Cell viability was measured by MTT assay. (B) H9c2 cells were pre-treated with different concentrations of BC, then stimulated with AGEs (200 µg/mL) for 24 h. Cell viability was measured by MTT assay. (C,D) The effect of BC on LDH (C) and cTn-I (D) leakage in AGE-induced H9c2 cells. Each experiment was performed in triplicate. *, P<0.05 vs. control group; #, P<0.05; ##, P<0.01 vs. AGE-induced group. BC, beta-carotene; AGEs, advanced glycation end products; LDH, lactate dehydrogenase; cTn-I, cardiac troponin-1.
