Effects of dietary tryptophan supplementation on mRNA expression of genes involved in mitochondrial biogenesis and mtDNA content in the jejunum of piglets challenged with diquat. (A) NRF1, nuclear respiratory factor 1; (B) TFAM, transcription factor A, mitochondrial; (C) PPARGC1A, peroxisome proliferative activated receptor gamma coactivator 1 alpha; (D) SIRT1, sirtuin 1; (E) SSBP1, single stranded DNA binding protein 1; (F) POLRMT, DNA-directed RNA polymerase, mitochondrial; (G) mtDNA, mitochondrial DNA. Data are means ± standard error; n = 8 for each group. Mean values sharing different superscripts within the same row differ significantly (p < 0.05). Control, piglets fed the basal diet without diquat injection; diquat, piglets fed the basal diet and challenged with diquat; 0.15% Trp + diquat, piglets fed the 0.15% supplemented diet and treated with diquat.
