Figure 1From: Reduced pulmonary function is age-dependent in the rat lung in normoxia Expressions of the studied proteins involved in the aging process in young and old rat lungs. Quantitative analysis determining the change in integrated optical intensity (IOI) was normalized against the mouse α-sarcomeric actin. Results are means ± SD (n = 3) for all groups. Normoxic young vs. normoxic old - *P < 0.01 for VEGF and p53; **P < 0.001 for p66Shc and pIkB-α; and ***P < 0.0001 for CPP32.Back to article page
