Figure 6From: Cholesterol synthesis inhibitors protect against platelet-activating factor-induced neuronal damageSimvastatin and squalestatin do not protect neurons against arachidonic acid. The survival of untreated primary cortical neurons (○) or neurons pre-treated for 24 hours with 500 nM simvastatin (□) or 100 nM squalestatin (●) prior to the addition of different concentrations of arachidonic acid. Values shown are the mean average neuronal survival ± SD from 9 observations.Back to article page
