Primary cultures of neonatal rat ventricular cardiac myocytes (NRVMs) were prepared from 1–2 days old Wistar rats as described previously [18].
NRVMs were stimulated either with 10−7 M Angiotensin II (ANG II, Merck-Millipore, Darmstadt, Germany) or 10−4 M Phenylephrine (PE, Sigma Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) to induce cellular hypertrophy.
