Indomethacin-induced alteration in mitochondrial functional integrity in rat gastric mucosa and effect of Mdivi-1 in the pathology

Rats were pretreated with Mdivi-1 at 2 mg/kg body weight followed by oral gavaging with indomethacin for 4 h. Control rats were treated with vehicle. Mitochondria were isolated for analyzing β-oxidation of fatty acids, mitochondrial dehydrogenase activity, ETC complex-I, RCR, ATP content, and ΔΨm as described under “Experimental procedures.” All experiments were done in triplicate (with n = 6–8 in each group). Data are presented as means ± S.D. **, p < 0.01; ***, p < 0.001 versus control; #, p < 0.05; ##, p < 0.01 versus indomethacin; NS, not significant.
