Representative immunoblots of IκBα, phospho-p65 (RelA) and tubulin proteins (A) and means ± SEM of optical densities of IκBα and phospho-p65 (n = 6, B) in the TA muscles of WT mice after 3, 6 and 24 h of LPS injection.

<p>Representative immunoblots of IκBα and tubulin proteins in the TA muscles of WT and MISR mice (C). Means ± SEM of mRNA levels of autophagy-related genes in the TA muscle of WT and MISR mice measured after 24 h of LPS injection and normalized as fold change from control (n = 6, D). Representative immunoblots (E) and means ± SEM of Lc3b-II optical density (n = 6, F) of TA muscle measured after 24 h of LPS injection. Data are shown as fold changes from control values. *P<0.05, as compared to control group. #P<0.05 compared with wild type mice.
