Zinc Regulates Glucose Metabolism of the Spinal Cord and Neurons and Promotes Functional Recovery after Spinal Cord Injury through the AMPK Signaling Pathway

Figure 4

Zinc regulated glucose metabolism in PC12 neurons via the AMPK pathway. (a–g) Western blots of p-AMPK, AMPK, PGC-1α, GLUT4, NRF2, NQO1, and HO-1 expressions after compound C treatment (). (h–k) The expressions of GLUT4 and NRF2 were detected by immunofluorescence staining (, ). Data are represented as the . , , and .
