Figure 3

Effect of combinatorial treatment of PROG and VDH on glutamate-induced LDH release (A) and MTT reduction (B) in rat primary cortical neurons. Primary cells were pretreated with either best concentrations of PROG and VDH or their combination for 24 h and subsequently exposed to glutamate (0.5 µmol/L) for 24 h. Drugs were present in the culture medium during the glutamate exposure. The values are expressed as mean ± SEM of three experiments. Significant difference: #P < 0.001 compared with control; *P < 0.001 compared with vehicle.
