Effects of six months e-cigarette vapor containing nicotine inhalation (e-Cig) on xCT expression in the FC, STR and HIP of female CD-1 mice. A) Immunoblot bands for xCT and GAPDH (loading control) expression in FC, STR and HIP tissues. B) Unpaired t-test analysis of immunoblots showed a significant decrease in the ratio of xCT / GAPDH in STR and HIP, but not significant in FC, in e-cigarette mice as compared with air controls (control value set to 100%). Data are shown as mean ± SEM (**p<0.01; *p<0.05), (n=4-5 for each group).
