Figure 2. Effect of NaF on protein expression levels of ATF6, p-IRE1, p-PERK, p-eIf2a and ATF4 in the spleen at 21 (A) and 42 (B) days of age. (a) The western blot assay. (b-f) Quantitative analysis of protein expression. Data are presented with the means ± standard deviation, * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, compared with the control group. Data were analyzed by the variance (ANOVA) test of the SPSS 19.0 software.
