Fig. 2From: A new Mfn-2 related synthetic peptide promotes vascular smooth muscle cell apoptosis via regulating the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway by inhibiting Akt signalingMRSP treatment increased the apoptotic percentage of VSMCs. A The level of endogenous Mfn-2 upon treatment with MRSP. B The OD405 of VSMCs treated with different concentrations of MRSP at 12 h and 24 h using Cell Death ELISAs. C Flow cytometry and D TUNEL staining were used to analyze MRSP-induced apoptosis of VSMCs in different groups. n = 3 for this experiment. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01Back to article page
