Figure 4From: Stanniocalcin 2 alters PERK signalling and reduces cellular injury during cerulein induced pancreatitis in miceSTC2Tgacinar cells have increased autophagy. (A) Representative Western blot analysis for LC3 I and LC3 II accumulation in wild type (WT) and STC2Tg(Tg) pancreatic extracts revealed increased accumulation of cleaved LC3 II which was (B) quantified by densitometry (n = 3 animals; *p < 0.05). IF for LC3 cellular accumulations in (C) WT and (D) STC2Tgpancreatic sections showed increased autophagic vesicles (arrowhead) in STC2Tgpancreatic tissue. Magnification bar = 10 μm.Back to article page
