Inhibited Apoptosis of C2C12 Myoblasts by a Eupatorium chinense var. simplicifolium Root Extract
We investigated the effects of a Eupatorium chinense var. simplicifolium (EUC) root extract on muscle disorders and explored the underlying mechanism for oxidative stress-induced C 2 C 12 myoblast damage. An EUC pre-treatment reduced the decreased cell viability after an H 2 O 2 treatment. The heat...
