Resveratrol Ameliorates Mitochondrial Elongation via Drp1/Parkin/PINK1 Signaling in Senescent-Like Cardiomyocytes

Figure 5

Resveratrol reduced the resistance of elongated mitochondria to CCCP-induced depolarization in H9c2 cells. (a, c) Mitochondrial membrane potential was detected using confocal microscopy by JC-1 fluorescent dye staining. Images were captured by confocal microscopy to show the variations of red and green FL; white scale bar represented 40 μm. The ratio of red/green FL was calculated by the fluorescence microplate assay. Data () were shown as the mean ± SEM (, ). (b, d) Mitochondrial morphology was detected using confocal microscopy (upper panels) by immunostaining with a TOM20 antibody (red); objective magnification, 63x; white scale bar represents 20 μm. Magnified photographs showed a detail view of the area indicated in the upper panels.
