Thymosin β4 Prevents Oxidative Stress, Inflammation, and Fibrosis in Ethanol- and LPS-Induced Liver Injury in Mice

Figure 2

Effect of Tβ4 on EtOH- and LPS-induced hepatic oxidative stress. Liver tissue from various groups was used to determine (a) ROS, (b) reduced GSH, and total protein expression of (c) Mn-SOD and (d) 4-HNE. All values are means of triplicate experiments ± SE and were corrected for loading differences after reprobing with β-actin. versus control; versus EtOH; versus EtOH + LPS.
