Figure Lengend Snippet: Effects of HF344 extract on the cell viability of the STZ-treated RINm5F cells, assessed using the MTT assay. In the "protective" condition (A), cell viability was evaluated after incubation with HF344 extract (1, 10, and 100 μg/mL) for 1 h before the addition of 6 mM STZ. In the "recovery" condition (B), cell viability was assessed after the addition of 6 mM STZ followed by incubation with HF344 extract (1, 10, and 100 μg/mL). Data are expressed as the mean ± SD (n = 4), #p < 0.05 vs control; ∗p < 0.05 vs STZ-treated cells, STZ, streptozotocin; HF: HF344.
