Pue prevents MPTP opening and Lyso-Tracker Red production from injury induced by A/R. (A, B) Flow cytometry BBcellProbe M61 assay for cellular MPTP following Pue, RA or 3MA pre-treatment. (C, D) Fluorescent probe LysoTracker Red for detecting lysosomes and quantitative analysis following treatment (enlargement, 200×; scaled bar: 50 μm). Data are showed as the mean ± SD (n = 3). *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001. Pue, Puerarin; RA, rapamycin; 3MA, 3-methyladenine; A/R, anoxia/reoxygenation; MPTP, mitochondrial permeability transition pore; ns, not significant.
