Reduced viability of differentiated cardiomyocytes exposed to cardiotoxic small molecules.
The viability of differentiated cardiomyocytes was assessed using a Resazurin metabolism assay. A) Untreated cells metabolize Resazurin (Catalog # AR002) to produce resorufin, a fluorescent molecule that can be measured using a fluorometric plate reader. Resorufin fluorescence accumulated in untreated cardiomyocytes. Cells treated with the cardiotoxic small molecules Staurosporine (blue; Catalog # 1285), a non-selective protein kinase inhibitor, or Doxazosin (tan; Catalog # 2964), an alpha 1 antagonist, did not metabolize Resazurin, as shown by lack of fluorescence accumulation, indicating a loss of viability upon treatment. B) Cell morphology of untreated, Staurosporine-treated, and Doxazosin-treated cardiomyocytes was assessed by brightfield microscopy.
