Effects of the monophthalate mixture on oxidative stress pathway gene expression levels from antral follicles. Mouse antral follicles were treated with vehicle control (DMSO) or the monophthalate mixture (0.065–325 μg/mL) for 96 hours. At 24 and 96 hours, cDNA samples derived from follicles were subjected to qPCR for Gpx (A), Cat (B), Gsr (C), and Sod (D). The graphs indicate means ± SEMs from 3–7 separate cultures (8–12 follicles/treatment/culture). * p ≤ 0.05; ^ 0.05 < p ≤ 0.10
