IL-15 Mediates Mitochondrial Activity through a PPARδ-Dependent-PPARα-Independent Mechanism in Skeletal Muscle Cells

Figure 2

Effects of IL-15 signaling on mitochondrial associated factors. (a) mRNA expression of PPARα, PPARδ, PGC1β, and PGC1α; (b) mRNA expression of UCP2, SIRT1, and Nrf1. Assessments were carried out on differentiated C2C12 myotubes following treatment with 100 ng/mL of IL-15 every other day for 6 days during the differentiation protocol. GAPDH was used as an internal control for qPCR analysis. All values are displayed as means ± SEM, = 6–9 per group, .
