We further investigated the autophagy mechanisms, which can provide cytoprotection,48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54 as seen in animal models of TBI and other neurological diseases.39 IL‐10 may induce autophagy or autophagy can enhance IL‐10 production, as reported previously.55 We have investigated several autophagy markers, such as Atg5, Atg7, Beclin‐1, LC3A/B, mTOR, p‐mTOR levels. Here, ATG7 is linked to nervous system disorder.
