RYGB promoted the hepatic autophagy (n = 8). (a) Western blot, (b) the bar graph of the hepatic autophagy-related protein of two weeks, (c) the bar graph of the hepatic autophagy-related protein of four weeks, (d) the bar graph of the hepatic autophagy-related protein of eight weeks, (e) the association between the plasma GLP-1 content and the hepatic autophagy markers in two weeks after RYGB, and (f) the association between the plasma GLP-1 content and the hepatic autophagy markers in four weeks after RYGB. All results are expressed as the mean ± SD. ∗Means P < 0.05 between diabetic group; #means P < 0.05 between diabetic sham group.
