Figure 6. MWCNTs and PbAc exposure significantly induced apoptosis in primary hepatocytes isolated from NAFLD mice. (A) After treatment with the low dose of PbAc, MWCNTs or MWCNTs + PbAc, apoptotic analyses were performed in primary hepatocytes from control and NAFLD mice using a flow cytometry. (B, C) Apoptotic rates in primary hepatocytes from control and NAFLD mice were statistically analyzed (***P<0.001, compared to saline water).
