CAT inhibits apoptosis in random skin flaps. (a) Immunohistochemical staining of proteins CASP3 in random skin flaps (200 magnification; scan bar, 25 μm). (b) Quantification of integral absorbance of CASP3 protein. (c) Western blotting result of Bax, Bcl-2, and C-CASP3 in the control and CAT group. (d–f) Quantification of Bax, Bcl-2, and C-CASP3 expressions in each group. Significance: and vs. the control group. Data were expressed as , .
