Mitochondrial MMP, function and cellular ROS analysis. Jurkat cells were loaded with violet caspase, Zombie NIR, MitoTracker Deep Red and CellROX Green as described in the Materials and Methods section. Live (DN), early apoptotic (EAPO, Zombie NIR+ve/caspase violet+ve), late apoptotic (LAPO, Zombie NIR+ve/caspase violet+ve) and oncotic (Zombie NIR+ve/caspase violet−ve) cells were analysed for MMP by MitoTracker Deep Red (a), those MMP + ve cells analysed for CellROX Green, ROS (b), those MMP-ve cells analysed for CellROX Green, ROS (c). Untreated cells, 0.5 μM shikonin, blockade of shikonin with zVAD (20 μM) or blockade of shikonin with Nec-1 (60 μM) were analysed. Mean percentage of MFI was normalised to untreated cells ± SD, (n = 3) were analysed for significance by One Way ANOVA (P < 0.5) and post ad hoc tested for significance, NS (P > 0.5, not significant), significance was P < 0.05*, P < 0.01**, P < 0.001***, P < 0.0001**** compared to untreated cells and between treatments as indicated
