Metrnl activates the ULK1/autophagy signaling in cardiomyocytes. (A) Effects of Metrnl on HG-induced downregulation of phosphorylated ULK1. (B) Effects of Metrnl shRNA on HG-induced downregulation of phosphorylated ULK1. (C) Effects of Metrnl on the mRNA levels of autophagy-related genes. (D) Effects of Metrnl on the formation of autophagosome as assessed by LC3 dots. Scale bar = 20 μm. (E) Effects of Metrnl on the protein expressions of p62 and LC3. (F) Effects of Metrnl shRNA on the formation of autophagosome as assessed by LC3 dots. Scale bar = 20 μm. (G) Effects of Metrnl shRNA on the protein expressions of p62 and LC3. n = 4. *P < 0.05 versus NG, Con, Con shRNA, †P < 0.05 versus HG or HG + Con shRNA.
