Chronic Variable Stress Is Responsible for Lipid and DNA Oxidative Disorders and Activation of Oxidative Stress Response Genes in the Brain of Rats

Figure 7

The effect of chronic variable stress on the level of mRNA expression for OGG1, MsrA, and Nrf2 genes in the hippocampus of rats. The mRNA’s expression was assayed in regard to the control group, where the expression level is estimated at 1. Data is displayed as mean ± SEM. Significance: ; by Student’s t-test; OGG1: and with 18 degrees of freedom; MsrA: and with 18 degrees of freedom; Nrf2: and with 45 degrees of freedom.
