Article Title: Fucoxanthin Ameliorates Carbon Tetrachloride‐Induced Liver Fibrosis in Mice via Nrf2/ HO ‐1/ GPX4 ‐Mediated Ferroptosis Pathway
doi: 10.1002/fsn3.70589
Figure Lengend Snippet: Effect of Fx on Nrf2 and ferroptosis signaling pathways in the liver of CCl 4 ‐induced mice. (A) Protein expression of hepatic Nrf2, heme oxygenase‐1 (HO‐1), nicotinamide quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1), and glutamate‐cysteine ligase modifier subunit (GCLM) expression. (B) Protein expression of hepatic GPX4, solute carrier family 7 member 11 (SLC7A11), transferrin receptor 1 (TFR1), and ferritin light chain (FTL). Data are expressed as the mean ± SD ( n = 3). * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01 and *** p < 0.001 versus CCl 4 group. ### p < 0.001 between the L‐Fx and H‐Fx groups.
