Autophagy Triggered by Oxidative Stress Appears to Be Mediated by the AKT/mTOR Signaling Pathway in the Liver of Sleep-Deprived Rats

Figure 6

SD-induced autophagy was mediated by the AKT/mTOR pathway in the liver. The protein levels of AKT, mTOR, and p70S6Kinase were detected by Western blotting. The ratios of phospho-AKT vs. AKT, phospho-mTOR vs. mTOR, and phospho-p70S6Kinase vs. p70S6Kinase are shown. The results were (, , and ).
