CDDO-Im pretreatment protected against liver I/R injury by means of autophagy induction. (a–c) Mice were pretreated with 3-Methyladenine (30 mg/kg, IP) 2 h after CDDO-Im (2 mg/kg, IP) or DMSO and killed at 6 h after reperfusion. (a) Serum ALT and AST levels. (b) Representative hematoxylin and eosin (HE)-stained sections (original magnification, × 100) and (c) relevant average Suzuki score. (d, e) Representative fluorescence micrographs display autophagosomes in primary hepatocytes with 3-MA in the presence or absence of CDDO-Im (original magnification, × 400). The numbers of autophagosomes were determined. (f) Quantification of average cytotoxicity (% cell death) in different groups were plotted. (n=3–4 per group, mean±S.E.M., **P<0.01, *P<0.05)
