OGT and OGA distribution profile in human and rat control and diabetic hearts. A: Human donor and diabetic myocardium cryosections were immunostained for α-actinin (green), OGT (magenta), and OGA (red). Regions of interest (white square and line) were chosen to plot OGT, OGA, and α-actinin signals. Signals from donor or diabetic myocardium are displayed as double y-axis graphs to illustrate the inversed distribution profile of OGT/α-actinin and OGA/α-actinin, respectively. B: Rat control and diabetic skinned myocytes were isolated from flash-frozen myocardium, fixed in 4% ultrapure formaldehyde, and immunostained as above. Regions of interest and OGT, OGA, and α-actinin signals were plotted as above and confirmed the abnormal distribution profile of OGT and OGA in diabetic hearts.
