Gigantol significantly inhibited the 12-LOX pathway. (a) The relative mRNA expression of Alox5, Alox12, Alox15 and COX2 in the mouse livers from the vehicle, CCl4 and (CCl4+ gigantol) groups. (b) The protein expression of platelet-, and leukocyte-type 12-LOX in the mouse livers at 16 h post CCl4 injection. The representative western blot bands are shown, n = 3 western blot experiments. The quantitative results are represented as the mean ± SD, n = 6 mice in each group. ##P < 0.01, #P < 0.05 versus the vehicle group; **P < 0.01, *P < 0.05 versus the CCl4 group. Full-length blots are presented in Supplementary Figure S6.
