Figure 2From: High glucose-induced apoptosis in human coronary artery endothelial cells involves up-regulation of death receptorsAbilities of high glucose (11.1 and 16.7 mM) and TNF-α (0.3 nM) to induce apoptosis in HCAECs. The DNA fragmentation was assayed as a biochemical hallmark of apoptosis. Values are expressed as mean ± SE (n = 3). **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001 versus normal glucose (5.6 mM) without TNF-α.Back to article page
