Oligonol Ameliorates CCl4-Induced Liver Injury in Rats via the NF-Kappa B and MAPK Signaling Pathways

Figure 9

Effects of oligonol on CCl4-induced MAPKs and Akt activation. Western blotting was performed to detect ERK, JNK, and p38 MAPK, as well as Akt, in liver tissues. Activation of these kinases was detected using their specific phosphorylated antibody. The band intensity of phosphorylated forms of MAPKs and Akt was quantified by densitometry and normalized to total forms of MAPKs and Akt, respectively. Values are mean ± SE of . and compared with the control group and and compared with the CCl4 group.
