  1. Expression of Hcn channels (Hcn2 and Hcn4), cardiac marker Tnnt2 and glucose transporters (Glut1 and Glut4) in differentiated H9c2 cells; for details see Table 1) in H9c2 cell line. Mean ± SEM, n = 2–3 per group; *P < 0.05 vs LG-DIF, #P < 0.05 vs HG-DIF, §P < 0.05 vs M)
  2. Groups labelling: LG-DIF—differentiated control cells treated with standard 5.5 mM glucose, HG-DIF—hyperglycaemia, differentiated cells treated with 33 mM glucose, M-DIF—mannitol, differentiated cells treated with 5.5 mM glucose and 27.5 mM of mannitol, NON-DIF – cells harvested before the differentiation
