| Abstrakt: | A high global prevalence of diabetes and its implications on the heart in vivo and in vitro tools have been pursued to alleviate the complications of high glucose. This chapter oulines the methods used for maintaining H9C2 cardiomyoblasts in vitro and for stimulating hyperglycemic situation. In addition, we present a method to assess cellular GLUT-4 expression using qRT-PCR. This cellular model also allows us to examine the therapeutic approach of an antioxidant, Trolox, for upregulating GLUT-4 and uptake of glucose under hyperglycemic condition. (© 2022.
