Effects of Ba on antioxidant gene expressions (a) and Nrf2/Keap1 signaling pathway (b) in jejunum (n = 3). Gene expressions of SOD, CAT, GPX-2, GST, TRX, NQO-1, HO-1 and p53 were detected by real time PCR. Total protein levels of Keap1 and β-actin as well as the phosphorylated and total protein levels of Nrf2 in the jejunum of piglets were determined using Abs recognizing phospho-specific or total protein. Results are given as mean ± SD. Differences between groups were determined by one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey test. Mean values were significantly different: *p < 0.05
