Figure 4. Antioxidant supplementation reduces expression of oxidative stress response reporters.

Figure 4

GFP is a readout of GST-D1 reporter expression in p38Kb mutant animals (A, B) and in wild type animals exposed to 5mM Paraquat (C, D). Antioxidant exposure with either Açai or Super Fruits reduces reporter expression in p38Kb mutants whereas only Super Fruits was effective at reducing elevated reporter expression in response to Paraquat exposure. Representative western blots from adult head and thorax protein lysates are shown in B and D. Quantitative measurements and statistical significance are depicted in A and C. Asterisks denote p < 0.05. Actin is used as a loading control.
