Figure 5

Relative expression of adenosine A2a receptor. Western blotting was used to detect the 47 kDa A2a receptor in forebrain fractions of rats fed liquid diets with (A, alcohol) and without (C, control) ethanol. Results are expressed relative to expression of actin as an internal loading control with control levels set at 1.0. Results are means ± standard error of 4 determinations. p < 0.05.
