Silencing of Nlrp3 in the liver by siRNA administration in vivo has no effects on the metabolism of MPTP. a Representative images from hematoxylin and eosin staining in the liver samples. b, c The analysis of MAO-B activity in the liver and the striatum via ELISA (n = 4 animals per condition). Samples were collected after 7 days of last MPTP injection. Data is presented as mean ± SEM, two-way ANOVA. d, f MPP+ levels were determined at the times indicated following the treatment with MPTP in liver, striatum, and serum (n = 8 animals per condition). Samples were collected after 90, 120, and 240 min of MPTP single injection. Data is presented as mean ± SEM, two-way ANOVA
