The Effect of Mechanical Ventilation on TASK-1 Expression in the Brain in a Rat Model

Figure 4

Western blotting analysis of TASK-1 levels in each group. Significant decreases in the TASK-1 channel levels in the HVt and LVt groups were observed. The HVt group tended to have a lower level of TASK-1 than the LVt group. Results are presented as mean ± SD. versus the basal group (HVt versus BAS , ) (LVt versus BAS , ). animals per group. BAS, basal; LVt, low tidal volume; HVt, high tidal volume.
