FIGURE: 2. ARBs reduce levels of Cu induced apoptotic markers in yeast.

Yeast cells were incubated with 2 mM Cu for 4 h with control treatment (black bars), Losartan (white bars) or Candesartan Cilexetil (gray bars). Following treatment, cells were stained with DHE (a) or TUNEL assay (b) and subsequently analyzed by flow cytometry or counted manually after fluorescence microscopy, respectively. Three biological repeats were used. (*P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; ***P < 0.001; ANOVA test using Tukey correction).

(c) OSIP108 does not affect the rescue effect of Candesartan Cilexetil.Yeast cells were incubated with 2 mM Cu for 4 h with control treatment, Candesartan Cilexetil (100 µM) in absence (2% DMSO) or presence of OSIP108 (12.5 µM – 25 µM). Following incubation, cells were plated on YPD agar plates and survival was calculated as compared to CFU/ml of cells receiving no Cu. Experiments performed in quadruplicate with three biological repeats. (*P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; ***P < 0.001; ANOVA test using Tukey correction).
