  1. The results are expressed as mean ± SEM (n = 4). Statistical analysis was performed using one-way ANOVA followed by LSD post-hoc test. Significant differences among all samples are indicated by different letters in each column (p < 0.05). NAC (50 mM) exhibited 77.29 ± 0.97% inhibition of apoptosis. Compound D: (E)-1-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)but-3-en-1-ol, compound D acetate: (E)-1-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)but-3-en-1-yl acetate, DMPBD: (E)-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)butadiene, PE: phenylbutenoid extract
