PGC1α activation by pterostilbene ameliorates acute doxorubicin cardiotoxicity by reducing oxidative stress via enhancing AMPK and SIRT1 cascades
Figure 5. Effect of pterostilbene treatment combined with Compound C or EX527 on AMPK, SIRT1 and PGC1α signaling protein levels in DOX-stimulated mice hearts. Representative western blot results of p-AMPK, AMPK, SIRT1, PGC1α, Ac-PGC1α, UCP2 and NRF1 are shown. Membranes were re-probed for Tubulin expression to show that similar amounts of protein were loaded in each lane. IB, immunoblot; IP, immunoprecipitation. The results are expressed as the mean ± SEM. *P < 0.05 vs. the Sham group, #P < 0.05 vs. the DOX-treated group, $P < 0.05 vs. the DOX+PTS cotreated group.
