Figure 5. LLLT increased mitochondrial IV level in the PFC of stress mice.
Biochemical indicators of mitochondrial complex I–IV levels from the brain regions of PFC, Hip and Hy were detected by ELISA assay in each group. Consistent with the results in ATP analysis, data revealed that LLLT only elevated the mitochondrial IV level in PFC, while no significant alterations of mitochondrial complex I-III were observed in the other tested brain regions. N= 9–10. *P<0.05 versus sham-treated group. NS: not significant difference.
