Figure Lengend Snippet: SalB attenuated CORT-induced HT22 cell damage. (A) HT22 cells were exposed to 0–250 μM CORT for 24 h, and CCK-8 assessed cell viability. (B) HT22 cells were treated with 2.5–40 μM SalB for 24 h, and CCK-8 assessed cell viability. (C) HT22 cells were pretreated with 10, 15 and 20 μM SalB for 1 h, and then stimulated with 200 μM CORT for 24 h. CCK-8 assessed cell viability. SalB significantly increased it. (D) The LDH level of the cells was detected by the kit, which was significantly reduced after SalB intervention. (E, F) Flow cytometry detected apoptosis level, which was significantly reduced after SalB intervention. (G–I) ELISA detected inflammatory factor content. SalB markedly declined TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 contents. (J, K) The intracellular ROS level was assessed using flow cytometry, which was markedly lessened after SalB intervention. (L–N) Oxidative stress indexes were detected by kits. SalB significantly increased GSH-Px and SOD activities and decreased MDA contents. n = 3, ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001 vs. 0/Control group; # p < 0.05, ## p < 0.01, ### p < 0.001 vs. CORT group.

Article Snippet: Subsequently, 10 μl of cell counting kit (CCK)-8 solution (G4103, Servicebio, Wuhan, China) was added and incubated for 2 h. The optical density (OD) at 450 nm was detected by a microplate reader (1410101, ThermoFisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA), and the cell viability was calculated to determine the optimal administration conditions.
