doi: 10.1016/j.redox.2022.102419
Figure Lengend Snippet: The loss of NOX2 increases the expression of insulin and antioxidative proteins in hypoxic islets. ( A ) Representative Western blot analysis of (from top to bottom) Nrf2, β-actin, HO-1, SOD2, SOD1 and insulin from whole cell extracts of isolated hypoxic WT and Nox2 −/− islets. ( B ) Quantitative analysis of insulin expression (Fold change) (n = 5 each). Mean ± SEM. *P < 0.05 vs. WT. ( C ) Quantitative analysis of SOD1 expression (Fold change) (n = 3 each). Mean ± SEM. *P < 0.05 vs. WT. ( D ) Quantitative analysis of SOD2 expression (Fold change) (n = 3 each). Mean ± SEM. *P < 0.05 vs. WT. ( E ) Quantitative analysis of HO-1 expression (Fold change) (n = 5 each). Mean ± SEM. *P < 0.05 vs. WT. ( F ) Quantitative analysis of Nrf2 expression (Fold change) (n = 5 each). Mean ± SEM. *P < 0.05 vs. WT.
