Figure 2. Degradation of p62 is dependent on the induction of autophagy.

(A) Cells were transfected with scrambled (SCR) or anti-LC3 (LC3) siRNAs, and 48 h later infected with PV at an MOI of 50 pfu/cell, or mock infected. Cells were collected at 6 h.p.i., and immunoblots were performed on lysates for p62, GAPDH, and LC3. (B) Cells were treated with 10 mM 3-MA for 12 h, then infected with PV at an MOI of 50 pfu/cell, or mock infected. Cells were collected at 6 h.p.i. and lysates were used for immunoblots.
