Figure EV2. d-malate had no function in the proliferation, differentiation and P-mTOR of C2C12.
(A) OD value of CCK-8 to detect proliferation activity of C2C12 cells (n = 10). (B) The mRNA expression of MyoG, Myf5, IGF1, MUFR1, Myostatin in C2C12 cells (n = 5–6). (C–E) Immunofluorescence images (C) of C2C12 cells after induced differentiation, differentiation index (D) and myotube diameter (E) (n = 6). Scale bars, 200 μm. (F, G) The protein expression of p-mTOR/mTOR in C2C12 cells (n = 4). (H, I) The protein expression of MyHC in C2C12 cells with 100 μM d-malate treatment for 2 days, 4 days and 6 days, ctrl group didnʼt receive d-malate treatment. (n = 3). Data information: t test was used in this figure where error bars represent SEM. Source data are available online for this figure.
