Figure 7. Stretch induces an increase in XO activity by a mitochondrial-derived ROS dependent pathway in adult rat cardiomyocytes.

Figure 7

Adult rat cardiomyocytes were cultured in Flexcell culture plates. XO activity was measured in unstretched cells and in cells stretched at 5% for 3 hours. XO activity was also measured after 3 hours of stretch in cells pre-treated with Mito Q, added at the concentrations shown and started 30 min prior to the initiation of stretch (n=5) #=P<0.05 vs. untreated unstretched, *=P<0.05 vs. untreated 3 hour stretch.
