Figure 1.

The 2-[³H]-DG uptake status in primary cultured cardiomyocytes after being treated by insulin and different statins. The 2-[³H]-DG uptake showed a significant negative correlation with the concentration of atorvastatin, but no significant correlation with pravastatin or rosuvastatin. Control – the primary cultured cardiomyocytes; Atorvastatin – the cardiomyocytes treated with insulin and atorvastatin; Pravastatin – the cardiomyocytes treated with insulin and pravastatin; Rosuvastatin – the cardiomyocytes treated with insulin and rosuvastatin. * P<0.05 compared with pravastatin and rosuvastatin groups; ^# P<0.05 compared with atorvastatin 1-μM group.
