Fig. 4From: Deferoxamine regulates neuroinflammation and iron homeostasis in a mouse model of postoperative cognitive dysfunctionEffects of DFO on oxidative stress markers in the hippocampus. Surgery significantly elevated hippocampal levels of MDA (a) and ROS (b) on postoperative days 3 and 7. This effect was reduced by DFO pretreatment. n = 4/group, *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01. Data are expressed as mean ± SD. ROS reactive oxygen species, MDA malondialdehyde, DFO deferoxamine, NS normal salineBack to article page
