Figure 2. Preservation of salivary flow rates 3 days after single γ-radiation exposure in myr-Akt1 mice.

Figure 2

Four-week old female FVB and myr-Akt1 mice were exposed to 1, 2, or 5 Gy γ-radiation. Three days after irradiation total saliva was collected (over a five minute period) following carbachol injection. Statistical analysis was performed using Student's t-test in Microsoft Excel. Results shown are from ten mice per group in the 1 and 2 Gy doses and four mice per group in the 5 Gy dose. Graphs represent averages and SEM from all mice. Significant differences (p≤0.05) were determined using a two sample t-test comparing FVB to myr-Akt1 and significant differences are marked with an asterisk (*).
