Figure 6. The effects of Z-FF-FMK and NaphthaCHO on QA-induced increases in P53 protein levels and activation of caspase-3.

Figure 6

Rats were treated with intrastriatal injection of Z-FF-FMK (5 nmol) or NaphthaCHO (5 nmol) 10 min prior to QA (60 nmol) injection. Rats were killed 12 h later after QA injection. Striatal tissues were dissected for preparation of total lysates. The protein levels of P53 and active caspase-3 were determined with immunoblotting. Bars represent mean ± SEM, n = 6 animals per group. Statistical comparisons were carried out with one-way ANOVA followed by Bonferroni t-test. ** P<0.01 vs. control group; ## P<0.01 vs. QA-treated group.
