Scavenging effect of SFE on Dox-induced intracellular ROS formation in H9c2 cardiomyocytes. Production of intracellular ROS was determined by measurement of DCF fluorescence, which was emitted by intracellular oxidation. a After 1 and 10 h incubation with 10 μM Dox and SFE, the fluorescence was measured with a fluorescence microplate reader. DCF fluorescence is expressed as % increase in DCF fluorescence with respect to the intensity at 0 time. ** p < 0.01 and *** p < 0.001 compared with the Dox-treated control. b Fluorescence images show the ROS levels in control cells and the cells stimulated with Dox or Dox and SFE
