Honokiol Protects against Anti-β1-Adrenergic Receptor Autoantibody-Induced Myocardial Dysfunction via Activation of Autophagy
Figure 6
Honokiol activated autophagy in myocardial tissues after passive immunization. (a) Representative Western blot images of autophagic markers LC3I, LC3II, Beclin-1, and p62 in cardiac tissue lysates from each group. (b–d) Quantification and comparison of Western blot band values from (a). In the β1-AAB group, LC3II and Beclin-1 decreased and p62 increased. These protein levels changed in the opposite direction in the β1-AAB + HNK group. Data were presented as mean ± SD ( per group). relative to the control group. relative to the β1-AAB group. HNK: honokiol.
