mRNA levels of mitochondrial related genes in INS-1E cells after recovery
After recovery, mRNA levels of target genes were quantified and normalized. Results are means ± S.E. of three independent experiments done in triplicate. p values versus corresponding controls.

| TFAM | 0.50 ± 0.13 | 0.84 ± 0.23 | |
| PGC-1α | 0.26 ± 0.09 | 0.23 ± 0.09 | |
| SOD1 | 0.59 ± 0.17 | 0.46 ± 0.07 | |
| SOD2 | 0.67 ± 0.29 | 0.51 ± 0.11 | |
| CAT | 0.24 ± 0.06 | 0.24 ± 0.05 | |
| GPx | 0.43 ± 0.09 | 0.60 ± 0.20 | |
| UCP2 | 0.72 ± 0.14 | 1.28 ± 0.14 | <0.05 |
