Melatonin prevents oxidative stress, inflammatory activity, and DNA damage in cirrhotic rats

Figure 6 The effect of melatonin on immunohistochemistry and Hsp70 expression with the Western blot technique in the liver of animals that underwent bile duct ligation surgery. The data are expressed as the mean ± standard error of the mean. Significant increase in the bile duct ligation (BDL) group in relation to the control (CO) and CO + melatonin (MLT) groups (^aP < 0.001). Significant decrease in the BDL + MLT group in relation to the BDL group (^bP < 0.001). A: The effect of melatonin on immunohistochemistry; B: Hsp70 expression with the Western blot technique.
