Quantitative comparison of Akt, C-reactive protein expression and Transforming growth factor-beta immunoexspressions

	Akt expression (%)	CRP expression (%)	TGF-β expression (%)
NC	10.4 ± 2.3	6.2 ± 3.5	5.8 ± 3.2
CP+S	12.6 ± 3.4	38.6 ± 5.6 *	43.2 ± 5.4 *
CP+OT	56.8 ± 7.2 ††	20.8 ± 4.8 †	22.6 ± 2.1 ††

Data were expressed as mean ± SEM. NC: naive control, ND: not detected, CP: Cisplatin, S: Saline, OT: Oxytocin, TGF: Transforming growth factor, CRP: C-reactive protein

^*P<0.001, CP+S vs. NC group
