Western blotting of proteins in the nucleus accumbens (NAc); expression relative to β-actin. (A) Blot image showing bands of the proteins of interest and β-actin. (B) Using one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s test, we found GLT-1 and xCT expression to be significantly higher in the Khat group as compared with controls and also in the Khat-CA group as compared with the Khat group. Using one-way ANOVA, we did not identify any significant differences in GLAST expression. Color dots represent individual data. ** p < 0.01. n = 6/group. CA, clavulanic acid.
