Acute Exposure to Permethrin Modulates Behavioral Functions, Redox, and Bioenergetics Parameters and Induces DNA Damage and Cell Death in Larval Zebrafish

Figure 7

Exposure to permethrin (25 and 50 μg/L) modules the protein levels of Nrf2-target antioxidant enzymes in zebrafish larvae. (a) Representative immunoblots, and densitometric analysis of immunoreactive bands of (b) γ-GCS (average for the γ-GSCs/β-actin ratio), (c) HO-1 (average for the HO-1/β-actin ratio), and (d) NQO-1 (average for the NQO-1/β-actin ratio). The parametric dates are expressed as the and analyzed by one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey as post hoc comparison, and nonparametric dates are expressed as , analyzed by Kruskal-Wallis followed by Dunn’s multiple comparison test. Groups not sharing letters are significantly different (p < 0.05).
