Western blot analysis to evaluate the effect of cell transplantation and melatonin treatment on the expression levels of an apoptotic marker Caspase-3 in 6-OHDA-injected rats. A Western blot for cleaved caspase-3 are shown. Equal amounts of total proteins were separated by SDS-PAGE and blots were probed with anti-caspase-3 and anti β-actin antibody. The results showed high expression of cleaved caspase-3 in 6-OHDA-injected rats. B The densities of cleaved caspase-3 bands were measured and the ratios to βactin bands were calculated. Number sign indicates the difference between the 6-OHDA-injected, treatment and control groups (*, P < 0.05; **, P < 0.01; ***, P < 0.001)
