The protein expression of molecules involved in the ER stress responsive PERK pathway. (a) The protein level of Bip and total and phosphorylation levels of PERK and eIF-2a protein detected by western blot. (b–d) The quantitative analysis of gray value based (a) performed using image-pro plus software. (e–g) Fold change (PA/BSA) of (b–d). Biological replicates (N = 3) were performed per group. Quantitative data are presented as the mean ± SD (N = 3 independent experiments). ; .
