Fig. 7

a Protein expression of HSP60, LONP1, and ClpP by western blot analysis in the intestinal crypts in WT/WT*, WT/Mut**, and Mut/Mut*** mice at 8 months of age. Relative band densities quantified using ImageJ are shown at bottom (Data are presented as the mean ± S.D and n = 3 mice per group; one-way ANOVA test). b Protein expression of LONP1 by western blot analysis in the intestinal crypts of Mut/Mut*** mice treated with ISRIB or control. Relative band densities quantified using ImageJ are shown on right (Data are presented as the mean ± S.D and n = 3 mice per group; paired two-tailed Student’s t-test). c Protein expression of LONP1 by western blot analysis in the intestinal crypts of Mut/Mut*** mice treated with siAtf5 or siNC. Relative band densities quantified using ImageJ are shown on right (Data are presented as the mean ± S.D and n = 2 mice per group; paired two-tailed Student’s t-test). d Summary of mechanism regulating intestinal aging caused by mtDNA mutation burden.
