From: Astaxanthin protects against MPP+-induced oxidative stress in PC12 cells via the HO-1/NOX2 axis
Effects of ATX on MPP+-induced NOX2, NRF2 and HO-1 levels in PC12 cells. The groups are C: Control; M: MPP+ (500 ÎĽM); M+A: MPP+ (500 ÎĽM) plus ATX (10 ÎĽM); MAS: MPP+ (500 ÎĽM) plus ATX (10 ÎĽM) and SnPPIX (10 ÎĽM); MD: MPP+ (500 ÎĽM) plus DPI (1 ÎĽM), A: ATX (10 ÎĽM). (A). The protein expression of Nox2, NRF2 and HO-1 was determined by western blot analysis; (B). NOX2 and HO-1 mRNA levels were determined by quantitative real-time PCR.
