HO-1, Nrf2, γ-GCS and NQO1 mRNA expression in the (A) liver and (B) spleen of mice. *P<0.05 and **P<0.01 vs. the model group. Vc, mice treated with 100 mg/kg Vc; AVP-L, mice treated a low concentration (50 mg/kg) of AVP; AVP-H, mice treated with a high concentration (100 mg/kg) of AVP. γ-GCS, γ-glutamylcysteine synthetase; AVP, Apocynum venetum polyphenol extract; HO-1, heme oxygenase-1; Nrf2, nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor 2; NQO1, NAD(P)H quinone dehydrogenase 1; Vc, vitamin C.
