Expression of antioxidant enzymes (AOEs) in EVs. EVs were isolated from rat plasma obtained ‘before’ and ‘after’ self-administered nicotine in the presence of either AV, menthol or combined (NIC: Nicotine, AV: Audiovisual, Men: Menthol). Representative western blots of SOD1 (a) and CAT (b). The ‘before’ represent the plasma EVs obtained before the self-administered nicotine, whereas ‘after’ represent plasma EVs obtained after the self-administered nicotine with menthol and AV cue alone or combined. (c) Densitometry analysis. Plasma EVs obtained ‘before’ self-administered nicotine were considered as 100%. Statistical analyses were carried out by using one-way ANOVA. Results are expressed as means ± S.E.M of n = 4 experiments.
