Figure 6. The AGTR1 inhibitor olmesartan significantly rescues phenotypes in the Drosophila pink1 mutant model.

Figure 6.

(A–F) images show the abnormal wing posture (B) and thoracic indentation (E) in the mutant compared to wild-type siblings (A,D). Quantification of %mutant individuals with abnormal wing posture (C) and thoracic indentation (F) showed a significant difference between vehicle- and drug (olmesartan)-treated samples. (G–J) Effect of olmesartan on the mitochondrial aggregation and DA neuron loss phenotypes of pink1 mutant, in comparison to DMSO control. Mitochondria are labeled with mito-GFP reporter. Data quantification shown in I, J. (n = 12; **, p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001, unpaired t-test).
