From: Increases in norepinephrine release and ovarian cyst formation during ageing in the rat
Changes in Bcl2 and Bax mRNA during aging in the rat. It is shown Bcl2 (Figure 6A), Bax (Figure 6B) and the ratio in both mRNA (Figure 6C), in the ovary during aging in the rat. Specific mRNA was measured by real time PCR as it was described en methods and normalized by the housekeeping gene ribosomal 18s mRNA. Results are mean value ± SEM of n = 5 experiments. a = p < 0.001 vs 6 and 8 months old; b = p < 0.05 vs 6 months old; c = p < 0.01 vs 6 months old.
