Curcumin Mitigates Accelerated Aging after Irradiation in Drosophila by Reducing Oxidative Stress

Figure 4

Curcumin pretreatment reduces radiation-induced protein carbonylation. Both paraquat (positive control) and irradiation increased protein carbonylation, whereas curcumin pretreatment decreased protein carbonylation. A gel image stained with Coomassie blue was used as an internal control of protein loading amount in SDS-PAGE.
