Figure 1. Impact of propofol on key proteins involved in apoptotic signalling.

Figure 1

Densitometric quantifications of caspase-3 and AIF in cortex and thalamus of P6 rats as analysed by Western blotting. Values represent mean normalised ratios of the densities of caspase-3 and AIF bands compared to densities of the control group (n = 5–6/point+SE). There was an effect of propofol treatment on caspase-3 levels over time, which was significant after 24 hrs in the cortex [F(1,29) = 3.63, p = 0.06] and after 12 hrs in the thalamus [F(1,28) = 3.1, p = 0.09).
