1 | Induction of autophagy by salidroside through the AMPK-mTOR pathway protects vascular endothelial cells from oxidative stress-induced apoptosis. | rhodioloside | protein kinase AMP-activated catalytic subunit alpha 2 | Homo sapiens |
2 | Salidroside upregulated AMPK phosphorylation but downregulated mTOR phosphorylation under oxidative stress; however, administration of compound C, an AMPK inhibitor, abrogated AMPK phosphorylation and increased mTOR phosphorylation and apoptosis compared with salidroside alone. | rhodioloside | protein kinase AMP-activated catalytic subunit alpha 2 | Homo sapiens |
3 | These results suggest that autophagy is a protective mechanism in HUVECs under oxidative stress and that salidroside might promote autophagy through activation of the AMPK pathway and downregulation of mTOR pathway. | rhodioloside | protein kinase AMP-activated catalytic subunit alpha 2 | Homo sapiens |
