Relevance of proteolysis and proteasome activation in fatty liver graft preservation: An Institut Georges Lopez-1 vs University of Wisconsin appraisal

Figure 5 Liver graft apoptosis and autophagy after reperfusion. Representative Western blot at the top and densitometric analysis at the bottom of protein levels of cleaved caspase 3 (A), cytochrome C (B) and P62 (C) in steatotic liver grafts. ^aP < 0.05 vs Cont2, ^cP < 0.05 vs UW. Cont2: Liver flushed and perfused ex vivo without cold preservation; UW: Liver preserved in UW solution; IGL-1: Liver preserved in IGL-1 solution; UW: University of Wisconsin; IGL-1: Institut Georges Lopez-1.
