Ginsenoside Rb1 Protects Neonatal Rat Cardiomyocytes from Hypoxia/Ischemia Induced Apoptosis and Inhibits Activation of the Mitochondrial Apoptotic Pathway

Figure 7

Effect of GS-Rb1 on caspase-3 and caspase-9 activities induced by H/I. NRCMs were cotreated with or without GS-Rb1 (5, 10, 20, and 40 μM) during H/I for 24 h. NRCMs were lysed and caspase-3 and caspase-9 activities were analyzed. Error bars represent mean±SD. ^∗∗𝑃<0.01 versus control group; ^#𝑃<0.05 and ^##𝑃<0.01 versus H/I group (𝑛=3).
