Fig. 7. Mitophagy inhibited AOPP-induced apoptosis of osteoblast in mice.

Fig. 7

A, B Western blot results of the tibia bone tissue showed that rapamycin significantly decreased the AOPP-induced upregulation of cleaved PARP, BAX, cleaved Caspase-3, and cytochrome c. C TUNEL assay results showed that rapamycin significantly inhibited AOPP-induced osteoblast apoptosis in vivo (scale bar = 50 μm). D Immunohistochemical results showed that rapamycin inhibited the AOPP-induced expression of BAX and cleaved Caspase-3 in osteoblasts in vivo (scale bar = 50 μm). Data are presented as the mean ± SD, *P < 0.05 versus control, #P < 0.05 versus AOPPs, n = 8. Clvd PARP cleaved PARP; Clvd Cas-3 cleaved Caspase-3; Cyt-C cytochrome c.
