Effects of BSO (a) and CAM (b) on cell viability in SAECs stimulated with H₂O₂. In panel a, samples were obtained from control cells, or from cells pretreated with or without 1 mM BSO for 16 h before stimulation with 100 μM H₂O₂ for 1, 3 or 6 h. In panel b, samples were obtained from control cells, from cells stimulated with 100 μM H₂O₂ alone, or from cells pretreated with 1 μM, 5 μM or 10 μM CAM for 72 h before stimulation with 100 μM H₂O₂ for 3 h. Data are presented as means ± SD of six independent experiments. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01 vs. control cells, ^## p < 0.01 vs. cells stimulated with H₂O₂ alone, ^†† p < 0.01 vs. cells pretreated with 10 μM CAM
