Figure Lengend Snippet: Establishment of D‐gal‐treated aging model in HEI‐OC1 cells. (A) Schematic illustration of D‐gal treatment in HEI‐OC1 cells. (B) Cell viability after exposure to different concentrations of D‐gal, evaluated using the CCK‐8 assay ( n = 4, independent samples). (C) Immunofluorescent staining of Mito‐SOX in HEI‐OC1 cells exposed to D‐gal (5 and 20 mg/mL) for 72 h. (D) Quantitative analysis of Mito‐SOX intensity in C ( n = 4, independent samples). (E) Mito‐SOX levels were detected using flow cytometry in HEI‐OC1 cells exposed to D‐gal (5 and 20 mg/mL) for 72 h. (F) Statistical analysis of Mito‐SOX levels in E ( n = 3, independent samples). (G) Immunofluorescent staining of DCFH‐DA in HEI‐OC1 cells. (H) Quantitative analysis of DCFH‐DA intensity in G ( n = 4, independent samples). (I) DCFH‐DA levels were detected using flow cytometry in HEI‐OC1 cells. (J) Statistical analysis of DCFH‐DA levels in I ( n = 3, independent samples). (K–M) Western blot analysis of senescence marker protein‐30 (SMP30), Lamin B1, and γ‐H2A.X in HEI‐OC1 cells treated with D‐gal. (N–P) Statistical analysis of SMP30 ( n = 4, independent samples), Lamin B1 ( n = 3, independent samples), and γ‐H2A.X ( n = 3, independent samples) expression in K–M. Scale bar: 20 μm. Statistical significance as ns, no significant difference, * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001, and **** p < 0.0001.
