Mean fluorescent intensity (arbitrary units) | ||
Type of cells | Anxious mice | Non-anxious mice |
Lymphocytes | 215 ± 31* | 135 ± 12 |
Monocytes | 46 ± 8* | 25 ± 4 |
Granulocytes | 1635 ± 375** | 418 ± 87 |
The mean fluorescent intensity corresponds to fluorescence resulting from intracellular DCFH-DA oxidation by intracellular ROS. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM. (n = 10). *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01. (data published by Rammal et al.41 in Eur J Pharmacol).
