Cell viability of the compounds propofol (PP) and norepinephrine (NE) in endothelial cells (a). THBMECs were treated with 3 µg/mL propofol for 3 h and 1 ng/mL norepinephrine for 1 h. MTT assays were performed to analyze the cell viability after treatment. The graph shows the mean + SEM of the cell viability, untreated cells served as control, (n = 3). Microbial traversal in presence of propofol and norepinephrine with and without MGO treatment. THBMECs were treated with 0.15 mM MGO for 1 h. Afterwards, glycated and non-glycated cells were treated with 3 µg/mL propofol for 3 h (b) or with 1 ng/mL norepinephrine for 1 h (c). 450 µL of E. coli suspension (OD 0.5) were put into each upper chamber. Medium from the lower chamber was plated on agar plates after 6 h. The graph shows the mean + SEM of counted colonies, untreated cells and intralipid (b) or sodium metabisulfite (c) served as control, (n = 3).
