Triptolide triggers iron overload through dysregulating iron absorption and storage system. (a) The protein levels of TRFC, TF, DMT1, FTH1, and LC3-II in AC16 cells were measured by Western blots. (b–f) The quantitative analysis of the indicated proteins. ns: no significant; ∗p < 0.05, ∗∗p < 0.01, ∗∗∗p < 0.001, ∗∗∗∗p < 0.0001 vs. the control group.
