3.1.1-SOD
According to results obtained for H-scores for immunohistochemical staining, lungs were observed to have SOD activity increased by a significant degree in the PPI group compared to the control group (p<0.002). Though there was a significant increase in the Ra group compared to controls, it was not as much as for PPI (p<0.002) (Figure 1). When this result is compared with immunohistochemical pictures, strong staining was identified in the PPI group, with less staining observed in the Ra and control groups (Figure 2-A). According to this result, PPIs can be said to increase SOD activity more compared to H2 receptor blockers.
