ULK1 regulates mevalonate/cholesterol biosynthesis pathway gene expression in mouse liver. (A) Representative immunoblot showing silencing efficiency of ULK1 in mouse liver treated with hydrodynamic tail vein delivered ± Ulk1 siRNA (40 ug/72 h). (B) Microarray derived transcriptomic pathway analysis in mouse liver upon Ulk1 KD as described above. (C) qRT-PCR validation of mevalonate/cholesterol biosynthesis pathway genes ± Ulk1 siRNA (40 ug/72 h) in AML12 mouse liver. Values are means ± SD (n = 4), p < 0.05. (D) Total cholesterol content in hepatic lipid extracts in mouse liver ± Ulk1 siRNA (40 ug/72 h). Values are means ± SD (n = 4, *p < 0.05).
