Effects of Valproic acid on cardiomyogenic induction by Cardiogenol C. Cardiogenol C-treated and untreated HBPCs were stained with Cardiac Specific Troponin I and sarcomeric myosin heavy chain (MF20) antibodies. The results revealed that Cardiogenol C-treated HBPCs expressed cardiac specific troponin I (G-H) and sarcomeric myosin heavy chain (J-L) progressively. HBPCs treated with Valproic acid alone (M-P) or Valproic acid plus Cardiogenol C (Q-T) did not induce GATA4 or cardiac specific troponin I expressions (M-T).
