Fig. 4From: Epigallocatechin gallate restores the reduction of protein phosphatase 2 A subunit B caused by middle cerebral artery occlusionEGCG alleviates the decrease in protein phosphatase 2 A (PP2A) subunits mRNA expressions induced by cerebral ischemia. Reverse transcription PCR for PP2A in the right cerebral cortex of vehicle + middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO), EGCG + MCAO, vehicle + sham, and EGCG + sham animals. Each band represents the results of transcription for PP2A in individual animals (A). The level of PP2A mRNA was expressed as the ratio of the intensity of the PCR product to the intensity of β-actin (B–D). Data (n = 4) are represented as the mean ± S.E.M. *p < 0.05 vs. vehicle + MCAO animalsBack to article page
