Fig. 2. Hyperoxygenation treatment increased the expression of MMP-2, MMP-9, and tPA in the hippocampus of Tg-APP/PS1 mice. (A) Real-time PCR data showing transcript levels of
Bace1,
Bace2,
Psen1,
Psen2,
Adam10, and
Apoe genes in the hippocampus of wildtype control (WT-CON), wildtype mice exposed to hyperoxygenation (WT-HO
2), Tg-APP/PS1 control mice (Tg-CON), and Tg-APP/PS1 mice exposed to hyperoxygenation (Tg-HO
2). n=6-7 animals/group, 4 PCR repeats. (C) Western blot data showing expression levels of APP, BACE1, PSEN1, and ApoE in the hippocampus of WT-CON, WT-HO
2, Tg-CON, and Tg-HO
2 mice. n=6~8 animals/group, 4~11 repeats. (D) Real-time PCR data showing transcript levels of
Mmp-2,
Mmp-9,
tPA,
Ide,
Nep, and
Lrp1 genes in the hippocampus of WT-CON, WT-HO
2, Tg-CON, and Tg-HO
2 mice. n=6~7 animals, 4 data points. (E) Western blot data showing expression levels of MMP-2, MMP-9, tPA, uPA, and Ide genes in the hippocampus of WT-CON, WT-HO
