Inhibition of Fis1/BAP31 prevents JNK activation and promotes cardiomyocyte survival. (A,B) Cardiomyocytes were subjected to hypoxia to mimic myocardial infarction in vitro. SiRNAs were used to attenuate Fis1 or BAP31 expression in cardiomyocytes. Then, Western blotting was used to analyze phosphorylated JNK levels in cardiomyocytes subjected to hypoxia. (C) An ELISA was used to detect JNK activity. (D) A CCK-8 assay was used to analyze the viability of cardiomyocytes. (E,F) The number of TUNEL-positive cells was measured using immunofluorescence. *p < 0.05.
