Effects of plumbagin on the viability of ARPE cells. Notes: (a) ARPE cells were treated with indicated concentrations of plumbagin for 24 h and cell survival was measured by MTT assay. The results are expressed as percentage of control; (b) The morphological characteristic of cells and nuclears were analyzed with phase-contrast image (Scale bar 50 μm) and DAPI staining (Scale bar 20 μm). Arrows indicated apoptotic morphological changes (e.g., chromatin condensation, shrinkage and nuclear fragmentation). Figures were selected as representative data from three independent experiments
