Sodium Butyrate Ameliorates Oxidative Stress-Induced Intestinal Epithelium Barrier Injury and Mitochondrial Damage through AMPK-Mitophagy Pathway

Figure 1

Effects of sodium butyrate (NaB) on the oxidative stress of porcine intestinal epithelial cells (IPEC-J2) treated by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). (a–c) The effect of different concentrations of H2O2 and NaB on cell viability. (d–f) Cell superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione reductase (GSH) activity, and malondialdehyde (MDA) level. (g) Flow cytometry to quantify the reactive oxygen species (ROS) level of IPEC-J2 cells. Different superscript letters within the same row mean significant difference (). and # mean significant differences () with the control group.
