Figure 6. — Effect of AID‐TAT peptide on Ψ_m in vitro. A, Representative traces of ratiometric JC‐1 fluorescence recorded in a myocyte before and after 5 minutes of exposure to 40 μmol/L of H₂O₂ followed by 5 minutes of exposure to 10 U/mL of catalase and a myocyte before and after 5 minutes of exposure to 0 μmol/L of H₂O₂ followed by 5 minutes of exposure to 10 U/mL of catalase. Vertical arrows indicate when drugs were added. Sodium cyanide (NaCN; 4 mmol/L) was added to collapse Ψ_m as indicated. B, Mean±SEM of changes in ratiometric JC‐1 fluorescence for all myocytes exposed to 40 μmol/L of H₂O₂, 10 U/mL of catalase, and 10 μmol/L of nisoldipine (Nisol) as indicated. C, Representative traces of ratiometric JC‐1 fluorescence recorded in myocytes before and after 5 minutes of exposure to 40 μmol/L of H₂O₂ followed by 5 minutes of exposure to 10 U/mL of catalase in the presence of either 1 or 10 μmol/L of AID(S)‐TAT or AID‐TAT peptide as indicated. Vertical arrows indicate when drugs were added. NaCN (4 mmol/L) was added to collapse Ψ_m as indicated. D, Mean±SEM of changes in ratiometric JC‐1 fluorescence for all myocytes exposed to 40 μmol/L of H₂O₂, 10 U/mL of catalase, 1 or 10 μmol/L of AID(S)‐TAT or AID‐TAT peptide, and 10 μmol/L of nisoldipine (Nisol) as indicated. Statistical significance was determined using the Kruskal‐Wallis test followed by Dunn's multiple comparison test. AID indicates alpha‐interacting domain; TAT, transactivator of transcription.
