Hepatic antioxidant capacity and alcohol metabolic genes in mice fed alcohol for 16 weeks with or without zinc supplementation for the last 4 weeks. Protein and/or activities of Cu/Zn-SOD (A), GPx (B) and catalase (C). The bands in A and B were quantified by densitometry analysis and the ratio to GAPDH was calculated by setting the value of controls as one. * Significantly different from other groups. D. MDA concentrations. E. Real time RT-PCR assay of alcohol metabolic genes. Results are means ± SD (n=4–6). Significant differences (p<0.05) among a, b and c are determined by ANOVA. Ctrl: control. EtOH: Ethanol. Zn: Zinc.
