FIGURE 2.
Glutathione status in the liver and skeletal muscle of N. parkeri adults and juveniles at low and high altitude, respectively. (A) GSH-eq, (B) GSSG, (C) GSH, (D) GSSG/GSH ratio. Total glutathione equivalents (GSH-eq) are GSH + 2GSSG. The data are expressed as the means ± SEM (n = 8) in μmol g−1 tissue. Student’s t-tests for independent samples were used to test for significant differences between the two altitudes (*p < 0.05, ***p < 0.001).
