mRNA and protein expression of dopamine metabolism genes in PON2 deficient mouse striatum. A Quantification of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) mRNA normalized to GAPDH, mean (± SEM), n = 8–10 per group, * p < 0.05. B Quantification of TH protein normalized to β-actin, mean (± SEM), n = 8–10 per group. **p < 0.01 C Quantification of vesicular monoamine transporter 2 (VMAT2) mRNA normalized to GAPDH, mean (± SEM), n = 9–10 per group, *** p < 0.001 D Quantification of VMAT2 protein normalized to β-actin, mean (± SEM), n = 9–10 per group. E Quantification of dopamine transporter (DAT) mRNA normalized to GAPDH, mean (± SEM), n = 10 per group. F Quantification of DAT protein normalized to β-actin, mean (± SEM), n = 7–10 per group
