Panax notoginseng protects the rat brain function from traumatic brain injury by inhibiting autophagy via mammalian targeting of rapamycin
Figure 5. Compared with the Panax notoginseng group, there was no significant difference in brain tissue destruction, brain function damage, while mTOR and p-mTOR were significantly decreased in the Panax notoginseng+Rapamycin group.

(C) mTOR, p-mTOR, P62, Beclinl, LC3I and LC3II by Western-blotting. n=6.
