Fig. 2: Autophagy is increased and apoptosis is reduced in the EOC re-ascites group.
From: Increased autophagy in EOC re-ascites cells can inhibit cell death and promote drug resistance
a IHC analysis of LC-3, Belin-1, CASP-9, and c-CASP-3 expression in EOC ascites cells (scale bar = 30 µm). b, c Western blot analysis of autophagy/apoptosis-related proteins expressed in the chemosensitive group and re-ascites group (***p < 0.001, **p < 0.01, *p < 0.05). d Immunofluorescence analysis of the chemosensitive group and re-ascites group with LC3 (green) and LAMP2 (red) staining. Nuclei were counterstained with DAPI (blue). e qRT-PCR analysis of the average relative mRNA expression levels of autophagy/apoptosis-related genes in the chemosensitive group and re-ascites group (**p < 0.01, *p < 0.05)
