(A–D) Expression of Becn1, Map1lc3a, Map1lc3b, Sqstm1, Caspase3, Bax, Bcl2 and Caspase8 in renal interlobar arteries of 5-month-old offspring. *,P < 0.05; N = 7. (E) Transmission electron microscope analysis on smooth muscle cells of offspring renal arteries. Thick arrow: mitochondrion. The aberrant phenomenon (the lines in the mitochondrion indicated by thin arrow) showed mitochondrion swelling (Left: control, right: PH).
