Figure 3From: Effect of prolonged exposure to diesel engine exhaust on proinflammatory markers in different regions of the rat brainBasal levels of NF-κB activation. A. A typical gel showing the NF-κB specific shifted bands for three separate control samples (designated as 1, 2, or 3). B = Blank; SC = Specific competitor; NSC = Non-specific competitor; Cx = cortex; OB = olfactory bulbs and tubercles; Cb = cerebellum; St = striatum; Hc = hippocampus. All brain regions were analyzed on the same gel and under the same conditions to allow direct comparison between regions. B. The sum intensity of the first shifted band. OB&T = olfactory bulbs and the tubercles; Cb = cerebellum; Hippo = hippocampus.Back to article page
