Figure Lengend Snippet: Representative images of EDU and TUNEL staining ( A ), EDU positive percent ( B ) and apoptosis percent ( C ) in H9c2 cardiomyocytes treated with different concentrations of MKA (1, 5, 10 μM) and 200 nM Ang II for 24 hours. D-H. Representative Western blots and relative protein expression for β-MHC, p-ERK, t-ERK, c-Fos, and Caspase-3. Data are presented as mean ± SE, comparisons among multiple groups were conducted using one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by Tukey’s multiple comparison test (n = 4 per group; *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001, ****p < 0.0001). LM: 1 μM MKA; MM: 5 μM MKA; HM: 10 μM MKA;

Article Snippet: Cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde, permeabilized with 0.3% Triton X-100/PBS (VICMED) for 5 minutes, and processed using the One-step TUNEL In Situ Apoptosis Kit (Red, Elab Fluor® 594) (Elabscience Co., Ltd., Wuhan, E-CK-A322) according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
