Astragalus Polysaccharide Suppresses 6-Hydroxydopamine-Induced Neurotoxicity in Caenorhabditis elegans

Figure 3

Effect of astragalan on the lifespan of 6-OHDA-intoxicated C. elegans. The BZ555 nematodes were treated with or without 2.0 mg/mL of astragalan after exposure to 6-OHDA, and the survival rates were scored every 2 days from the beginning of adulthood until all dead. A representative Kaplan-Meier survival curve from at least three independent experiments is presented.
