The Absence of Nrf2 Enhances NF-𝜿B-Dependent Inflammation following Scratch Injury in Mouse Primary Cultured Astrocytes

Figure 6

Gelatin zymography of MMP9 activity. (a) Gelatin zymography analysis showed higher MMP9 activity in group KO TBI than in group WT TBI. (b) Quantitative analysis showed that MMP9 activity was higher in astrocytes after scratch (𝑃<0.01). Such elevation was much severe in group KO TBI than in group WT TBI (𝑃<0.01). (*𝑃<0.01, compared with sham counterpart; ^#𝑃<0.01, compared with WT TBI).
