Table 2 Changes of mitochondrial membrane potential, assessed by flow cytometry using JC-1 red/green fluorescence ratio in in control and Scott cells after 48 or 72 h of apoptosis induction by calcium ionophore A23187 (200 nM) or SKF 96365 (10 μM) in the absence and presence of the caspase inhibitor z-VAD.fmk (50 μM). Values are the mean ± SEM of 4 independent experiments.
