Anti‐Aging Effects of Schisandrae chinensis Fructus Extract: Improvement of Insulin Sensitivity and Muscle Function in Aged Mice

Figure 4

Supplementation with SFe increased muscle protein synthesis in aged mice. Phospho-Erk1/2, Erk1/2, phospho-S6K, and S6K protein expression in TA muscle were analyzed by western blotting. GAPDH expression was analyzed as an internal control. Representative images of the blots are shown in the upper panel; quantification of the blots was computed using ImageJ software and is shown in the lower panel. Data are presented as the mean ± standard deviation (SD) (n = 10 per group). .
