Fig. 3From: Human astrocytes and aortic endothelial cells actively convert the oxidized form of albumin to the reduced form: reduced albumin might participate in redox regulation of nerve and blood vessel systemsTime course of f(HMA) values (%) of HSA incubated at 37°C in each growth medium in the absence (open circles) or presence (closed circles) of cell culture (2 × 105 cells/well): normal human a astrocytes, b aortic endothelial cells, and c dermal fibroblasts. Using independent cell cultures, the data presented are the means ± SE obtained from a representative experiment performed in triplicateBack to article page
