Fig 1: Expression changes in key neuronal proteins induced by chest blast. (A) Western blot images of the differentially expressed protein Nqo1 after chest blast exposure. The expression levels of (B) Nqo1, (C) Vim, (D) Dcx, and (E) Inpp5k with normalized to internal control GAPDH. All experiments were repeated at least three times. All data were expressed as mean ± SEM (n = 5) and analyzed by a one-way ANOVA, followed by Tukey’s test for multiple comparisons. Differences were considered statistically significant at p < 0.05 for all analyses. ∗p < 0.05 vs. control group.
