Oxidative stress-induced mitochondrial dysfunction in a normal colon epithelial cell line

Figure 4 Mitochondrial reactive oxygen species scavenging ameliorates mitochondrial damage in CRL. 1790. CRL.1790 cells pretreated with mitoTempo (Mitochondria specific reactive oxygen species scavenger), stimulated with heat killed cecal contents (HKC) or heat killed E. coli for 6 h and 12 h were assessed for mitochondrial function using mitotracker staining. A and B: Denotes intensity of mitotacker staining in cells 6 h and 12 h post stimulation respectively (n = 3). Data are expressed as mean ± SE. CTCF: Corrected total cell fluorescence; CCCP: Carbonyl cyanide 3-cholorphenylhydrazone.
