Inhibitory effect of polyphyllin VII (PP7) on ROS generation in the differentiated osteoclasts. BMMs cells were pretreated with various concentrations of PP7 for 2 h. Cells were then induced with or without RANKL plus M-CSF to differentiate into osteoclasts. Intracellular ROS was measured using flow cytometry. Panel a Representative plots of ROS measured with flow cytometry. Panel b Comparison of the fluorescence intensity of DCF among cells treated with various concentration of polyphyllin VII (PP7). Vertical axis: fluorescence density; horizontal axis: polyphyllin VII (PP7) concentration (μM). * P < 0.05, as compared with the cells treated with 0 μM of polyphyllin VII
