Comparative to exercise, TMZ regulates MQC and improves mitochondrial functions in HFD mice. (a, b) P-AMPK, PGC-1α, LC3II/LC3I, PINK1, MFN1, and DRP1 protein expressions were determined by Western blot. (c) Transmission electron microscope observation of mouse skeletal muscle tissue with 1 μm scale. AV autophagic vacuole, m mitochondria. (d) Mitochondrial DNA/nuclear DNA was determined by PCR. € CS protein expression was determined by Western blot. (f) ATP content were measured. *, ** represented p < 0.05, p < 0.01 in comparison with ND group, respectively; #, ## represented p < 0.05, p < 0.01 in comparison with HFD group, respectively.
