Effect of resveratrol on neonatal cardiomyocytes apoptosis. a: Protective effect of 30 μM resveratrol (Rsv) on norepinephrine (NE: 5 μM)-induced apoptosis in normal neonatal mouse cardiomyocytes. a: Apoptotic cells (characterized by condensed and/or fragmented nuclei) were identified and counted using fluorescent images of four independent regions from the same culture dish. Data presented are means ± SEM, n = 3. * P < 0.05 versus control; # P < 0.05 versus NE. b: Representative Hoechst 33342 staining microscopic pictures showing the effect of Rsv on NE-induced apoptosis; (a) untreated normal neonatal cardiomyocytes (control); (b) normal neonatal cardiomyocytes with (5 μM) NE; (c) normal neonatal cardiomyocytes with (5 μM) NE and (30 μM) Rsv; (d) normal neonatal cardiomyocytes with (30 μM) Rsv
