DHCR24 downregulation reduced cholesterol esterification and total cholesterol content in C8D1A astrocytes. a Transcription level of ACAT was measured by qPCR analysis. The values are shown as the means ± SEM, n = 3 per group. b Representative images of Oil Red O staining of lipid droplets of astrocytes from blank control group (Blank, BL) and vector groups (Negative control, NC1 or NC2), DHCR24 low expression (LE) and overexpression (OE) groups. Magnification: 60 × , Scale bar: 20 µm. The images were captured at random, and the average number of lipid droplets from each group was analyzed using Image Pro Plus 6.0 version. One-way ANOVA analysis of the results was shown at (c). d Quantification of total cholesterol content. One-way ANOVA analysis, *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; compared with control groups (BL, NC1 and NC2)
