Arsenic-Induced Injury of Mouse Hepatocytes through Lysosome and Mitochondria: An In Vitro Study

Figure 2

Effect of DPI, a NOX inhibitor, and cyclosporin, an inhibitor of mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT), on arsenic-induced ROS generation in primary cultured mouse hepatocytes. Cells were pretreated with either DPI or cyclosporin (10 μM) at least 30 min before the treatment of 10 μM arsenic. (a) After 1 h of arsenic treatment, quantitative assessment of ROS production was measured by multimode plate reader. vs. control; vs. arsenic; (b) after 3 h of arsenic treatment, quantitative assessment of ROS production was measured by multimode plate reader. # vs. control; ## vs. arsenic.
