Fig. 4From: Dietary supplementation with shiikuwasha extract attenuates dexamethasone-induced skeletal muscle atrophy in aged ratsEffect of shiikuwasha extract or grape extract supplementation on dexamethasone-induced changes in LC3B-I and LC3B-II. Both LC3B-I and LC3B-II protein levels in gastrocnemius muscle were normalized to GAPDH. a LC3B-I normalized to GAPDH, b LC3B-II normalized to GAPDH. CTL control, DEX dexamethasone, DEX + SE dexamethasone + shiikuwasha extract, DEX + GE dexamethasone + grape extract. Values are mean ± SEM (n = 5 or 6). *P < 0.05 CTL versus DEX (student’s t-test)Back to article page
