TBHQ Alleviated Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress-Apoptosis and Oxidative Stress by PERK-Nrf2 Crosstalk in Methamphetamine-Induced Chronic Pulmonary Toxicity

Figure 2

Effect of MA and TBHQ on Nrf2-mediated antioxidative stress in lungs. (a) Nrf2 protein expression in lungs; (b) Nrf2 level in different groups by real-time PCR; (c) oxidative genes expression in different groups. Values are expressed as mean ± SD (). , , compared with the control group; , , compared with the MA group. MA: methamphetamine; THBQ: tertiary butylhydroquinone.
