Degree of mitochondrial nitrosylated proteins: (a) representative immunoblots; (b) protein densitometry to Ponceau S of the corresponding samples; (c) quantification of mitochondrial nitrosylated proteins. The means are the average of 8 rats. DEF: rats fed the ω3 polyunsaturated fatty acid-deficient diet; EPA: rats fed the eicosapentaenoic acid-enriched diet; Sham: sham-operated rats; Sept: septic rats; CI: cross-interaction; A, B: histogram bars without a common letter are significantly different.
