Sevoflurane preconditioning attenuated cellular apoptosis in MSCs under hypoxia and reoxygenation. The morphological alterations of MSCs with or without sevoflurane preconditioning under 12 h hypoxia and 2 h reoxygenation (H/R) (a). M + O2, MSCs under normoxia; MS + O2, sevoflurane preconditioned MSCs under normoxia; M-O2, MSCs under H/R; MS-O2, sevoflurane preconditioned MSCs under H/R. Scale bar = 200 μm. The effect of sevoflurane preconditioning on apoptosis in MSCs under H/R (b). Data are shown as Mean ± SEM, n = 3 per group, **P < 0.01 versus M + O2, ##P < 0.01 versus M-O2
