A Analysis of the cell surface area via immunofluorescence staining after Ang II-infused hiPSC-CMs transfected with pcDNA3.1(+) or circ-SIRT1-oe or circ-SIRT1-oe plus treatment with 3-MA (autophagy inhibitor). Scale bar, 10 μm. N = 3. B, C The expressions of CH markers in Ang II-infused hiPSC-CMs of the above-mentioned groups were determined by RT-qPCR and western blot analyses. N = 3. D, E Autophagy was measured via western blot analysis of autophagy-related proteins and immunofluorescence staining analysis of Ad-GFP-mRFP-LC3 in Ang II-infused hiPSC-CMs of the above-mentioned groups. Representative images of fluorescent GFP dots (green), mRFP dots (red), and their merged images were shown. Scale bar, 10 μm. N = 3. **P < 0.01 was assessed by one-way ANOVA and Tukey.
