Activation of AMPK during hiPSC-derived cardiomyocyte differentiation. (A) Western blot analysis of AMPK, phospho-AMPK, PGC-1α, CPT-1α, and α-actinin on days 0, 10, 20, and 30 during hiPSC-derived cardiomyocyte differentiation. RT-qPCR analysis of the genes regulating energy metabolism [PGC-1α (B) and CPT-1α (C)] and fatty acid transport and oxidation-related genes [FABP3 (D), FAT-CD36 (E), and SLC27a6 (F)] in hiPSC-derived cardiomyocytes on days 0, 10, 20, and 30 (n = 3). *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001, ****P < 0.0001 one-way ANOVA.
