Table 4. Antioxidant enzyme gene expression (by DDCt) in hearts of NL and SL mice with or without calorie restriction (CR).
Gene | NLAL (n = 10) | NLCR (n = 10) | SLAL (n = 10) | SLCR (n = 10) |
---|---|---|---|---|
MnSOD | 0.99 ± 0.09a | 0.91 ± 0.04a | 1.09 ± 0.04a | 0.98 ± 0.03a |
Cu/ZnSOD | 1.14 ± 0.09a | 1.15 ± 0.14a | 1.11 ± 0.10a | 1.12 ± 0.11a |
Catalase | 0.80 ± 0.08a | 0.96 ± 0.16a | 0.99 ± 0.11a | 0.99 ± 0.13a |
Significance was calculated by ANOVA test.
(MnSOD: manganese-superoxide dismutase, Cu/ZnSOD: copper/zinc superoxide dismutase).
Means with distinct letters significantly differ, p < 0.05.
