Figure 2. α-Synuclein gene ablation increases prostaglandin mass following 30 sec of global ischemia.

Figure 2

Wild type and α-synuclein gene ablated mice were subjected to either 30 seconds of global ischemia or the brains were fixed in situ using head-focused microwave irradiation (basal PG levels). Brain PG were extracted with methanol, purified on C18 cartridges, and analyzed by LC-MS/MS. Values are means ± SD. PG-prostaglandins; WT-wild type mice; KO-α-synuclein gene ablated mice; * - significantly different from WT, p< 0.05; ** - significantly different from WT and KO basal levels, p< 0.05.
