Article Title: Time-Dependent Effects of Cisplatin on Autophagy Gene Expression in Bladder Cancer Cells
doi: 10.3390/biomedicines14051006
Figure Lengend Snippet: Time-dependent expression profiles of autophagy-related genes in T24 and 5637 bladder cancer cell lines following cisplatin treatment. Relative mRNA expression levels of genes involved in autophagy initiation ( ULK1 , BECN1 ), elongation ( ATG5 , ATG7 , LC3B ), selective autophagy ( p62/SQSTM1 ), and lysosomal regulation (LAMP1 , TFEB ) were evaluated at 0, 6, 24, and 48 h post-treatment. Gene expression levels were calculated using the 2 −ΔΔCt method and are presented as fold changes relative to the control group (0 h). Blue bars represent the T24 cell line, and orange bars represent the 5637 cell line. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM of at least three independent experiments. * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01 indicating statistical significance between the T24 and 5637 cell lines at the corresponding time points.
