Apoptosis induced by TMOC.

<p>(A) DAPI nuclei staining was used to visualize the apoptosis induced by TMOC. Arrows represent the apoptotic cells. Scale bar = 10 µm. (B) PI uptake was analyzed under a fluorescent microscope. Scale bar = 50 µm. (C) Representative flow cytometry profiles of apoptosis and (D) quantitative results obtained using Annexin V/PI staining. (E) Western blots of apoptotic related proteins. The assay was repeated three times, and a representative result is shown. * <i>p</i><0.05, ** <i>p</i><0.01 compared to control.
