The protective effects of AICAR on cardiomyocyte apoptosis induced by tBHP. (A) The derease of cell viability were abrogated in tBHP group pre‐treated with AICAR. (B and C) The cell apoptotic rate was increased significantly in tBHP group, however, decreased in cardiomyocytes pre‐treated with AICAR. (D) Cell apoptosis was determined with Hoechst 33258 staining. 200× magnification. (E) Effects of AICAR on the expression of apoptosis‐related proteins in tBHP‐induced cardiomyocytes. Mean ± S.D., n = 3, *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01 versus control, #P < 0.05, ##P < 0.01 versus tBHP.
