Effect of estrogen treatment on changes in the Bax:Bcl-2 ratio in spinal cord injured animals. SCI animals were treated with low doses of estrogen (1, 5, and 10 µg/kg) via osmotic pump at 15 min following injury. Changes in the Bax:Bcl-2 were assessed by Western blot analysis. (A) Representative Western blot showing changes in Bax and Bcl-2 expression in caudal penumbra tissue. (B) Bar graph quanitifying densitometry of Western blots. *P < 0.05 compared to sham + vehicle; @P < 0.05 compared to injury + vehicle (n = 3).
