Figure 6.Bedaquiline augments glycolysis in normal human fibroblastsThe Seahorse XF96 analyzer was employed to determine the status of glycolysis in normal human fibroblasts treated with 10μM bedaquiline for 48 hours. (A) The line graph of 3 independent experiments is shown. (B, C, D, E) Glycolysis, glycolytic reserve, and ECAR were elevated. F. The plot of OCR versus ECAR shows that bedaquiline shifts the metabolic state of normal fibroblasts from a quiescent state to an energetic state. ** p<0.001.
