Fig. 7From: Physiological, mitochondrial, and oxidative stress differences in the presence or absence of lactation in ratsMarkers of oxidative stress in muscle of age-matched rats that did not reproduce (NR), and rats that did not (PP) or did (PL) suckle their young for 21 days postpartum. Data include protein level of the antioxidants (a) SOD2, (B) SOD1, (c) CAT, and (d) GPX. In addition, data include markers of oxidative damage including (e) lipid peroxidation determined by 4-HNE, and (f) protein carbonyls levels determined by using oxyblot. Representative blots are shown under the graphs (a-d) or to the right of the graphs (e and f). Data shown are mean ± SDBack to article page
