Figure Legend Snippet: AICAR-mediated AMPK activation rescues DEDT-induced retinal damage. ( A ) The effect of the AMPK activator AICAR on retinal cell viability under high glucose conditions with DEDT exposure. ( B ) Quantitative PCR was performed to analyze the mRNA expression of key components in the AMPK/Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway. ( C-D ) Protein levels of AMPK, Nrf2, and HO-1 were quantified by WB and quantitative analysis. ( E ) The expression of the anti-apoptotic protein BCL-2 was evaluated using ELISA. ( F-G ) Levels of tight junction proteins. ( H ) Inflammatory cytokines, including IL-6 and IL-8, were quantified by ELISA. All DEDT treatments were conducted under high-glucose exposure. Data are presented as mean ± SD ( n = 6). Statistical significance was determined by one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s post-hoc test, **** p < 0.0001, *** p < 0.001, ** p < 0.01, * p < 0.05, ns = not significant. AICAR: AMPK activator.
Techniques Used: Activation Assay, Real-time Polymerase Chain Reaction, Expressing, Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay
