Figure Lengend Snippet: Fig. 5. Silibinin modulated the expression of p-EGFR/EGFR, p-ERK/ERK, cleaved-Caspase3, Bcl2 and Bax 72 h after pMCAO. (A) Representative Western blot images of p-EGFR, EGFR, p-ERK, ERK, cleaved-Caspase3, Bcl2 and Bax in the Sham, pMCAO, pMCAO + SIL-M, pMCAO + SIL-M + C225, pMCAO + C225 groups 72 h post- ischemia. (BCDEF) Quantitative analysis of p-EGFR/EGFR, p-ERK/ERK, cleaved-Caspase3, Bcl2 and Bax. (One-Way ANOVA, *P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01, *** P < 0.001, n = 6 per group).
Article Snippet: The primary antibodies, diluted in 0.01 M PBS, included: polyclonal rabbit anti-mouse p-EGFR antibody (1:200, Cell Signaling Technology, USA), polyclonal rabbit anti-mouse p-ERK antibody (1:400, Cell Signaling Technology), and monoclonal rabbit anti-mouse cleaved-Caspase-3 antibody (1:300, Cell Signaling Technology).
