LIVE/DEAD experiments in the presence of pseudonajide. a Confocal microscopy images showing cells (left) unexposed and (right) exposed to the molecule. After incubation, cells were treated with LIVE/DEAD BacLight reagent (Thermo Fisher). b Graph of the percentages of DEAD (red) and LIVE (green) cells. At least 1000 cells were counted in more than 10 randomly chosen fields per condition, and the experiments were performed in triplicate for each time point. Bars represent the standard deviation. Statistical analysis comparing results to the respective control conditions (Student’s t-test): *, p < 0.05
