Effect of estradiol and testosterone on the apoptosis rate of activated HSCs detected via flow cytometry. a Apoptosis map of each group based on flow. b Apoptosis rate in each group (compared with the estradiol group, *P < 0.05 or **P < 0.01; compared with the testosterone group, #P < 0.05 or ##P < 0.01; compared with the estradiol + ethanol group, △P < 0.05 or △△P < 0.01). Data are expressed as mean ± SD, n = 3
