Figure 3. Apelin attenuates apoptosis of cardiomyocytes through suppressing the mitochondrial death pathway.
(A) The viability of cells in each groups. (B) TUNEL photomicrographs of cardiomyocyte in different groups (magnification ×100). (C) Percentage of TUNEL-positive cells in each group. Data are presented as mean ± SEM. #P < 0.05 vs sham, n = 6; *P < 0.05 vs MI, n = 6. P values were analyzed using one-way ANOVA.
