Figure 6.
(A,B) Gel retardation assay (GRA) in guinea pig cytosol for the investigation of the behavior of CS, CA, 7MER, DMA, BA and R4 versus AhR in the presence and absence of 20 nM of TCDD. Time of incubation 1.5 h. Results are expressed as means ± SD. (7MER = 7-O-methyl-epi-rosmanol, DMA = 4′,7-O-dimethylapigenin, CS = carnosol, CA = carnosic acid, BA = betulinic acid, R4 = total methanolic extract). The bar means followed by the same letter (as superscript) are not statistically different at p ≤ 0.01.
