From: Lipopolysaccharide exposure induces oxidative damage in Caenorhabditis elegans: protective effects of carnosine

Fig. 4

Carnosine ameliorates oxidative stress in C. elegans induced by LPS. a The levels of SOD (a), CAT (b), GSH (c), GR (d) and MDA (e) were detected in C. elegans after LPS exposure. The levels of sod-1 (f), sod-2 (g), sod-3 (h) and daf-16 (i) mRNA in C. elegans were decreased by LPS treatment, and were significantly reversed by carnosine. Date are presented as means±SEM. ###P < 0.001, vs. the vehicle group; ***P < 0.001,**P < 0.01, *P < 0.05, vs. the LPS + vehicle group
