Changes in autophagy flux-related proteins (LC3 and p62) and autophagy induction-related proteins (BECLIN1, BNIP3, and ATG7) in FDP muscles after 8 weeks of resistance exercise training. a Representative Western-blot images for LC3 and p62 in each group. b Quantification of LC3-I, LC3-II, and LC3-II/I ratio. c Quantification of p62. d Representative Western-blot images for BECLIN1, BNIP3, and ATG7 in each group. e Quantification of BECLIN1. f Quantification of BNIP3. g Quantification of ATG7. Comparisons of each target protein expression were made after normalization to GAPDH. SC sedentary control group, RE resistance exercise group. *p < 0.05 vs. SC
