Cell viability of trophoblast cells treated with 10 μM Raptinal, 15 μM Quinacrine dihydrochloride, or 500 μg/mL PS-NPs, and co-treated with 10 μM Z-VAD-FMK for 48 h. The results showed that treatment with Raptinal, Quinacrine dihydrochloride, or PS-NPs reduced trophoblast cell viability, and co-treatment with Z-VAD-FMK rescued trophoblast cell viability.
