Effects of NP on MAPK activation in the brain. Western blot analysis of various MAPKs in total protein lysates isolated from the frontal cortex and hippocampus (n = 8 for each group, except n = 7 for hippocampus control). Images show four representative protein bands. Band intensity was first normalized to that of α-tubulin. Phosphorylation was shown by phosphorylation form normalized to total form. Data was analyzed using unpaired Student’s t-tests. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001 compared to the control
