Immunization with a Neural-Derived Peptide Protects the Spinal Cord from Apoptosis after Traumatic Injury
Figure 3
Activity of caspase-3 seven days after SC injury and PBS or A91 immunization. (a) Representative Western blots of caspase-3 expression. (b) Expression levels of caspase-3 after densitometric analysis. A91 immunization reduced the activity of caspase-3. *Different from PBS-immunized rats (; Student’s -test). Bars represent the mean ± SD of 6 rats. This is one of three independent Western blot assays performed in the 6 rats of each group, where we observed the same effect. Jurkat cells were used as a positive control (C+).
