Effect on the expression of dopamine receptors and its targets associated with pre and postsynaptic signaling in differentiated PC12 cells following the exposures of cadmium (10 μM) and quercetin (100 μM). Quantitative analysis revealed that PC12 cells were exposed to Cd (10 µM) and quercetin (100 µM) for 24 hr alters the pre and postsynaptic signaling targets. β-actin was used as an internal control to normalize the data. Relative protein levels were quantified using Alpha Ease FC Stand Alone V.4.0 software after normalization with β-actin. The cropped gels are displayed for the clear representation.The data represent means ± SE of three independent experiments; *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01; a-compared to control group; b-compared to cadmium exposed group; CONT – Control, Cd – Cadmium, QUR – Quercetin.
