Apocynin Dietary Supplementation Delays Mouse Ovarian Ageing

Figure 3

Protein carbonylation in the mouse ovaries evidenced by fluorescence immunohistochemistry, using a specific antibody for DNP. (a) Representative images of young, reproductively aged and apocynin-treated aged mice. Note the substantial carbonyl labeling increase in ovarian stroma cells (white arrows) and antioxidant-mediated amelioration (arrowheads). (b) Average quantification of stained area (per group). Y: young; AG: aged; AA: aged apocynin. Data are presented as . , compared with young female mice; #, compared with reproductively aged female mice.
