Figure 8. TP supplementation increases antioxidant enzyme expression in the SN and HIPP of aged male rats. (AC) mRNA levels of GSH-PX, CAT, and Mn-SOD in the SN. (D) Representative western blots of GSH-PX, CAT, and Mn-SOD expression in the SN. (EG) Quantification of GSH-PX, CAT, and Mn-SOD expression in the SN (normalized to β-actin). (HJ) mRNA levels of GSH-PX, CAT, and Mn-SOD in the HIPP. (K) Representative western blots of GSH-PX, CAT, and Mn-SOD expression in the HIPP. (LN) Quantification of GSH-PX, CAT, and Mn-SOD expression in the HIPP (normalized to β-actin). Data are expressed as the mean ± S.D. (n = 5/group). *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01 (Bonferroni test); #P < 0.0167 (Mann-Whitney U test, Bonferroni correction).
