Vanillic Acid Alleviates Acute Myocardial Hypoxia/Reoxygenation Injury by Inhibiting Oxidative Stress

Figure 4

Vanillic acid (VA) pretreatment alleviates loss of in H9c2 cells exposed to hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R), while AMPKα2-siRNA abrogates this effect. (a) Representative dot plots of flow cytometry. (b) was calculated with the ratio of red/green fluorescence obtained by flow cytometry. The ratio of fluorescence in the upper right quadrant and lower right quadrant was used to evaluate levels of . Data are expressed as the , . vs. control group; ▲▲ vs. H/R group; vs. VA+H/R group. JC-1 FL1: JC-1 fluorescence channel 1; JC-1 FL2: JC-1 fluorescence channel 2.
