Gliclazide Does Not Fully Prevent 2-Deoxy-D-Ribose-Induced Oxidative Damage Because It Does Not Restore Glutathione Content in a Pancreatic β-Cell Line

We compared the effects of gliclazide, an antidiabetic agent with antioxidant properties, and N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC), a glutathione precursor, in protecting against 2-deoxy-D-ribose- (dRib-) induced oxidative damage in HIT-T15 cells. Using trypan blue staining and flow cytometry with annexin V/PI...
