From: Down-regulation of the M6P/IGF-II receptor increases cell proliferation and reduces apoptosis in neonatal rat cardiac myocytes

Figure 6

Effects of the IGF2R ribozyme on the apoptosis induced by hypoxia and TNF treatment in cardiac myocytes. Cells were infected with Ad-GFP (control) or Ad-GFP/IGF2R-Rz. 72 hours post infection, cells were challenged with either hypoxia (A) or TNF (B) for one day and then cell death was examined using a fluorescence microscope. Cells were stained with Hoechst dye for nuclei and observed under 480 nm blue-fluorescent light. The bright blue spots are the nuclei of apoptotic cells.
