Effects of QSG on TAC and the transfer of ATP from mitochondria to cytoplasm in HF rats after AMI. SUCLA2 is a core enzyme of TAC and CKMT2 is responsible for the transfer of mitochondrial ATP to the cytoplasm. A reduction of SUCLA2 and CKMT2 were observed in the model group when compared to the sham group. QSG increased cardiac CKMT2 and SUCLA2 levels compared with the model group. n = 4 per group. Values are mean ± SE. Asterisks indicates significant differences. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01
