Trimetazidine reversed statin‐induced mitochondrial dysfunction via modulation of mitochondrial complex III activity and oxidative stress. (A) Enzymatic activity of the complex III in mitochondria isolated from gastrocnemius. The activity of complex III is expressed in nmol reduced cytochrome c per mg mitochondrial protein. (B) Fluorescence of JC‐1 for mitochondria isolated from gastrocnemius. (C) Enzymatic activity of the citrate synthase (CS) in mitochondria isolated from gastrocnemius. The activity of CS is expressed in nmol 2‐nitro‐5‐thiobenzoate (TNB) per mg mitochondrial protein. (D) Fluorescence of Amplex Red oxidation for mitochondria isolated from gastrocnemius. (E) The activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) in gastrocnemius. (F) The glutathione redox state (GSH/GSSG) in gastrocnemius.
