From: Nitric oxide compounds have different effects profiles on human articular chondrocyte metabolism
The effect of nitric oxide (NO) on chondrocyte viability depends on glucose levels. Articular chondrocytes were cultured in medium with crescent glucose concentrations and treated with 1 mM sodium nitroprusside (SNP) and 1 mM N-ethyl-2(1-ethyl-2 hydroxy-2-nitrosohydrazine (NOC-12) for 24 hours. Data are expressed as a percentage of apoptotic (hypodiploid) nuclei. Values are the mean ± SD; n = 3.
