qRT-PCR analysis of isolated hippocampus on exposure to whole-body gamma radiation of mice.

The qRT- PCR analysis of the transcript levels of ER stress-specific gene a. CHOP; and b. BiP on exposure to 7 Gy, 8 Gy, 9 Gy, and 10 Gy radiation. GAPDH was used as an internal control for the estimation of target gene expression. For quantitative representation, the graph is plotted as gene expression compared to the control. Then, 1-way ANOVA, followed by Dunnett’s multiple, were used to check the significance based on the control. Error bars represent Mean±SD with ANOVA parameters (^*P<0.05; ^**P<0.01; ^***P<0.001).
