Propofol restrained the AMPK (adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase) signaling pathway in HepG2 cells. (A) The protein expression levels of p-AMPKα1 (phospho-AMP-activated protein kinase α1), p-mTOR (phospho-mammalian target of rapamycin), and p-ULK1 [phospho-Unc-51 like autophagy activating kinase 1 (p-ULK1)] were detected by western blot; (B) the histogram revealed the semi-quantitative analysis of the protein. *, P<0.05, versus propofol 0 µM group.
