Assessment of the effects of 1-h NAC pretreatment in curcuminoid analogues (FLDP-5 and FLDP-8) and curcumin treated LN-18 cells. ROS functions appeared not to be required for curcuminoid analogues-induced apoptosis differed from curcumin-induced apoptosis that was demonstrated to be inhibited after NAC pretreatment in LN-18 cells. Each data point was obtained from three independent experimental replicates and expressed as mean ± SEM of the percentage of apoptotic cells. *p < 0.05 against negative control, NEG (untreated cell) and #p < 0.05 against treatment group without NAC
