Figure 8 Overexpression of transient receptor potential melastatin 7 increased expressions of calcineurin and apoptosis-associated molecules, decreased expressions of adenosine triphosphate and p-dynamin-related protein 1ser637 in hippocampal neuronal cells. A: The relative protein expression of transient receptor potential melastatin 7 (TRPM7), calcineurin, and p-Drp1ser637; B: Relative of adenosine triphosphate level; C: Mitochondrial membrane potential: The red fluorescence was decreased in the NC + PcDNA4-TRPM7 group, indicating an increase in apoptotic cells; D: The normalized mRNA expression of caspase-3, B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2)-associated X protein (Bax), and Bcl-2; E: The relative protein expression of The relative protein expression of caspase-3, Bcl-2-associated X protein, and Bcl-2, FK506 is a calcineurin inhibitor that attenuates the adenosine triphosphate reduction and cell apoptosis caused by TRPM7 overexpression. aP < 0.05, compared with normal control + PcDNA4 group; bP < 0.05, compared with NC + PcDNA4-TRPM7 group. Data presented as mean ± SEM. Drp1: Dynamin-related protein 1; TRPM7: Transient receptor potential melastatin 7; CaN: Calcineurin; NC: Normal control; DMSO: Dimethyl sulfoxide; Bax: B-cell lymphoma 2-associated X protein; Bcl-2: B-cell lymphoma 2.
