Figure 3. Decreased expression of iron-response proteins IRP1 and IRP2 in R6/2 HD mice.

Figure 3

A. IRP-1 protein expression in cortical and striatal separated brain tissue was significantly decreased in 12-week-old R6/2 mice compared to age-matched wild-type littermate controls. B. To a lesser extent IRP-2 expression was also decreased in HD model tissue from the same mice but did not reach significance in cortical regions. P-values: *<0.05, **< 0.01, n=5.
