Fig. 2

Western blot analysis of Akt expression and phosphorylation in muscle biopsies of cachectic (+Cach.) and non-cachectic (−Cach.) patients. The blot shows representative lysates that were separated on a 9% SDS-PAA gel and stained with antibodies directed against all isoforms of Akt, pS473-Akt or pT308-Akt. In the lower panel, the percentage of relative protein level is reported as mean±SEM, where the value from non-cachectic subjects (control group) is set to 100%. **P ≤ 0.01

Western blot analysis of expression and phosphorylation of Foxo proteins in muscle biopsies of cachectic (+Cach.) and non-cachectic (−Cach.) patients. The blot shows representative lysates that were separated on a 9% SDS-PAA gel and stained with antibodies directed against Foxo1 (FKHR), Foxo3a (FKHRL1) and pThr32-Foxo3a, respectively. In the lower panel, the percentage of relative protein level is reported as mean±SEM, where the value from non-cachectic subjects (control group) is set to 100%. **P ≤ 0.01

Western blot analysis of mTOR expression and phosphorylation in muscle biopsies of cachectic (+Cach.) and non-cachectic (−Cach.) patients. Representative lysates were separated on a 7.5% SDS-PAA gel and stained with antibodies directed against mTOR and pS2448-mTOR. In the lower panel, the percentage of relative protein level is reported as mean±SEM, where the value from non-cachectic subjects as the control group is set to 100%. **P ≤ 0.01

Western blot analysis of expression and phosphorylation of p70S6 kinase in muscle biopsies of cachectic (+Cach.) and non-cachectic (−Cach.) patients. The blot shows representative muscle lysates from muscle that were separated on a 9% PAA gel and probed with antibodies directed against S6K and pT389-S6K. In the lower panel, the percentage of relative protein level is reported as mean±SEM, where the value from non-cachectic subjects (control group) is set to 100%. *P ≤ 0.05
