C3G markedly ameliorated ferroptosis in 52E cells and HK-2 cells. A Cell viability determined by CCK-8 cell viability assay. (n = 6). The cells were treated with drugs for 24 h; B–D The levels of MDA, SOD and GSH of different groups in 52E cells and HK-2 cells respectively. (n = 6). The cells were treated for 24 h. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.001. C3G cyanidin-3-glucoside, CCK-8 cell counting kit-8; MDA malondialdehyde, SOD superoxide dismutase; GSH glutathione, HK-2 human proximal tubule epithelial cells
