Linagliptin activates autophagy in the hippocampi of cadmium-intoxicated rats. This was demonstrated by SQSTM-1/p62-diminished accumulation (A) and Beclin-1-upregulated protein expression (B) in the hippocampi of cadmium-intoxicated rats. N = 6 in each group (mean ± standard error of the mean). A p-value of less than 0.05 was significant. *** p < 0.001, compared to control; # p < 0.05, ## p < 0.01, compared to cadmium (Tukey’s test for multi-comparisons and one-way ANOVA). Cd, cadmium chloride; LIN, linagliptin; SQSTM-1/p62, sequestome sequestosome-1/protein 62.
