Dietary Lycium barbarum Polysaccharide Induces Nrf2/ARE Pathway and Ameliorates Insulin Resistance Induced by High-Fat via Activation of PI3K/AKT Signaling

Figure 3

LBP induces Nrf2 phosphorylation and activates Nrf2/ARE pathway in vivo. (a) Immunoblotting analysis of phospho-Nrf2, total Nrf2, HO-1, SOD2, and CAT in liver. Representative western blots are shown. (b) The ratio of phospho-Nrf2/Nrf2. Data was normalized to the control and expressed as means ± SEM ( ), # . (c) The ratio of GSH/GSSG of liver. Data was expressed as means ± SEM ( –8 per group), # . (d) Intracellular ROS levels of frozen liver sections (200x).
