Lysine deficiency results in increased SCs apoptosis rate, apoptosis marker protein caspase-3 expression level and autophagy marker protein LC3-II/LC3-I ratio. (A) CON; (B) LD; (C) LA; (D) apoptosis rate (%); (E) representative images of caspase-3 protein expression levels with Western blotting; (F) representative images of LC3-II/LC3-I protein ratio with Western blotting. * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01. The data shown represent mean ± SEM of three independent experiments (n = 3).
