DMC stabilizes MMP as stained by Rh-123. a Photomicrograph showing the preventive effect of DMC (50 nM) against rotenone induced mitochondria membrane potential. a Control, b rotenone, c DMC + rotenone and d DMC. b Rotenone (100 nM) significantly decreased MMP, while cells that were pretreated with DMC (50 nM) significantly increased MMP. Values are given as mean ± SEM of four independent experiments in each group. *p<0.05 compared to control; #p<0.05 compared to rotenone groups (DMRT)
