Autophagic and apoptoic responses to varying levels of excess glucose. LC3 expression in embryos. Negative control (A), physiologic 5 mM (B), 20 mM (C), 35 mM (D), and 52 mM (E) glucose. Cell death detection assay for apoptosis. Positive control of DNase-treated embryos (F), physiologic 5 mM (G), 20 mM (H), 35 mM (I), 52 mM (J) glucose. Each group consisted of at least 30 embryos and the experiment was repeated three times.
