Analysis of catalase activity in Dach-SMOX cerebrocortical gliosomes and synaptosomes. The specific activity of catalase (mmoles of decomposed H₂O₂ per min per mg protein) was quantified by spectrophotometric assay in brain cortex (A) gliosomes and (B) synaptosome from both control and Dach-SMOX mice. Data are reported as filled squares (control) and filled triangles (Dach-SMOX). Mean and SD of experiments performed in quadruplicate on five animals per group are also reported. ** p ≤ 0.01, according to Mann–Whitney test.
