Fig 6. TH protein level in neuronal cultures from hypothalami and brainstem of WKY or SHR incubated in the absence (control) or presence of the proteasome inhibitor Lactacystin (5 μmol/L) (PI) during 30 min.

TH protein level was assessed by Western-blot as described under Methods. Blots were stripped and reprobed for GAPDH to assess protein loading. Signals from TH protein level were normalized to GAPDH levels. Each bar represents the mean ± SEM (n = 7). * P<0.05 as compared to each corresponding control.
