Comparison of the protein expression levels of the total and nucleus Nrf2 and cytoplasmic HO-1 in three groups of CLP-induced septic rats. (A) The expression of total and nuclear Nrf2 in hippocampus. (B) The expression of cytoplasmic HO-1 in hippocampus. Compared with the sham group, the nuclear and total Nrf2 and HO-1were significantly (P = 0.004) increased in both the CLP + saline group and the CLP + vitamin C group 24 h after CLP modeling surgery. Compared with the CLP + saline group, the expression levels of the nuclear and total Nrf2, and HO-1 were significantly (P = 0.001) increased in the CLP + Vitamin C group. Values are expressed as mean ± standard deviation (n = 5). *P < 0.05 and **P < 0.01 compared with the sham group; ##P < 0.01 compared with CLP + saline group. CLP cecal ligation and puncture, Nrf2 nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2, HO-1 heme oxygenase-1.
