Figure 2From: Expression of endogenous Mkp1 in 6-OHDA rat models of Parkinson’s diseaseMkp1 mRNA expression is transiently increased in the SN following unilateral 6-OHDA MFB or striatal lesions. qRT-PCR of (a) Th, (b) Mkp1 mRNA in the ipsilateral SN and (c) Mkp1 mRNA in the ipsilateral striatum at 0, 4, and 10 days after administration of 6-OHDA or saline into the right MFB. qRT-PCR of (d) Th, (e) Mkp1 mRNA in the ipsilateral SN and (f) Mkp1 mRNA in the ipsilateral striatum at 0, 4, 10 and 28 days after administration of 6-OHDA or saline into the right striatum. ** p < 0.01 vs. saline-treated control at the same time-point; one-way ANOVA with post-hoc Tukey’s test (n = 4 animals). Data are expressed as mean with standard errors.Back to article page
