Autophagy inhibition attenuates TGF-β2-induced EMT in HLE-B3 cells. A-B the expressions of autophagy markers (A) and EMT markers (B) was detected by western blot analysis after treated with 50 uM CQ in the presence or absence of TGF-β2 or/and blue light exposure for 48 h. (C) Cell migration abilities were determined by transwell migration assays after stimulation with CQ, TGF-β2 and blue light exposure. D Quantification of migrated cells after transwell migration assays. Data were shown as mean ± SD. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, and ***P < 0.001
