To evaluate whether autophagy activation is required for the action of bFGF on myelin cleavage during WD, we analysed the expressing changes of the essential autophagy proteins, including ATG‐7, ATG‐5, Beclin‐1 and LC3, in sham, PNI and PNI + bFGF groups after 5 day post‐surgery via Western blotting. Here, MAP1LC3A is linked to Wilson disease.
