Figure 8

HNG prevents loss of AMD mitochondria: (a) Confocal images of cybrids treated with mtGFP stain demonstrated increased mtGFP fluorescence in HNG-treated AMD cybrids. (b) In AMD cybrids, quantification graphs show that HNG increases mtGFP fluorescence by 194.3% (P<0.001, n=5) compared to AMD cybrids. The HNG-treated normal cybrids and untreated-normal cybrids showed similar levels of mtGFP staining (Supplementary Table S11). Scale bar=20 μm. Data are represented as mean±S.E.M., normalized to untreated-normal cybrids (assigned value of 1). The endpoint for all experiments was 72 h
