Figure 3. GCM inhibits activation of mitochondrial pathway.
The cells were treated with PA and/or GCM at the concentrations indicted for 24 h and then the cell were collected for analysis of mitochondrial pathway. (A) Protective effect of GCM on PA-disrupted mitochondrial membrane potential in HepG2 cells determined by JC-1 staining. (B) Changes of Bcl-2 family proteins by PA in the presence or absence of GCM analyzed by western blotting in HepG2 cells. (C) Influences of GCM on Bcl-2 family protein in liver tissues of mice fed with MCD diet detected by western blotting.
