Ratio of phosphorylated proteins between IDT and IS group in P30 rat hippocampus

Protein	P30 IDT/IS	Unpaired t-Test P Value
P-Akt	1.06	0.17
P-FoxO1	0.75	0.06#
P-p70S6K	1.03	0.85
P-Erk1/2	0.88	0.58
P-p90rsk	0.88	0.10
P-Elk1	0.97	0.74

Phosphorylated proteins were normalized by total protein or β-actin. Sample size (n) = 5–6 rats/group.

IDT, iron deficient treated with iron; IS, iron sufficient control; P30, postnatal day 30; P, phosphorylated; Akt, protein kinase B; FoxO1, forkhead box O1; Erk, extracellular signal-regulated kinase.
