Determination of the intracellular redox environment of A172 and U251 cells. (A, B, a, b) DHE method for evaluating ROS production in A172 and U251 cells in each group. (C, D) Changes in GSH-PX, MDA, and SOD expression of A172 and U251 cells in each group (vs. control, *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01). DHE, dihydroethidium; ROS, reactive oxygen species; GSH-PX, glutathione peroxidase; MDA, malondialdehyde; SOD, superoxide dismutase; NC, negative control; O.E, overexpressed; K.D, knockdown. All experiments were performed in triplicate
