Nrf2 activation induced by acacetin is mediated by AMPK. (A) Western blots and relative level of pAMPK in H9C2 cardiomyoblasts treated by 0.3, 1, or 3 μM acacetin. (B) Western blots and relative level of Nrf2 in H9C2 cardiomyoblasts transfected with control siRNA or AMPK siRNA in the absence or presence of 3 μM acacetin. (C) Western blots and relative level of Nrf2 in left ventricular tissues of rats subjected to ischemia/reperfusion injury with treatment of acacetin or Compound C plus acacetin. Data were expressed as mean ± SEM and analyzed by one-way ANOVA followed by Bonferroni-test (n = 5 individual experiments, P < 0.05 vs. sham, ∗∗P < 0.01 vs. control or vehicle of control siRNA or sham; #P < 0.05 vs. acacetin; ##P < 0.01 vs. control siRNA with acacetin).
