Figure Lengend Snippet: TLCA regulates mitochondrial biogenesis and altered myofiber type composition through the p38 MAPK/PGC-1α signaling pathway. A Cell viability of cells treated with different concentrations of TLCA for 24 h (n = 10). B & F The mRNA expression of MYH1A and MYH7B (n = 6). C & G Intracellular enzymatic activities of succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), ATP content and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) content (n = 6). D & H The mRNA expression of HK1, GPI, PGAM1, PGK1, PYGL, PGC-1α, NRF1 and TFAM (n = 6). E The protein expression of PGC-1α, p38 MAPK and phosphorylation p38 MAPK (n = 3). I The protein expression of PGC-1α (n = 3). Data were shown as mean ± SD; *Represents significant difference when compared with 0 μM TLCA or CON group, and # represents significant difference when compared with TLCA group. *& # P < 0.05, ⁎⁎ & ## P < 0.01, ⁎⁎⁎ & ### P < 0.001.
Article Snippet: The differentiation medium containing TLCA and p38 MAPK inhibitor SB203580 (152121-47-6, MedChemExpress, Shanghai, China) was added to CPMs after 4 days of differentiation, and the cells were collected after 24 h.
