Behavioral Improvement and Regulation of Molecules Related to Neuroplasticity in Ischemic Rat Spinal Cord Treated with PEDF
Figure 6
Levels of laminin (205 kDa) and B-cell lymphoma 2 antiapoptotic factor (Bcl-2, 26 kDa), detected by western blot, in the ventral region of the lumbar spinal cord of Sham, Saline and, PEDF groups 6 weeks after surgery. Values of the relative optical density of the signal in the bands were expressed as a percentage of respective Sham groups. The representative bands are illustrated in (b), and α-tubulin (50 kDa) was used as sample loading control. () when the Saline group differs from Sham and #() when the PEDF group differs from Saline group, according the one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey posttest. Means ± s.e.m., .
