Values are means from triplicate groups of juvenile olive flounder where the values in each row with different superscripts are significantly different (mean ± SEM; p < 0.05).
Relative gene expression level (recovery time at 0 h was set as a control; 18s used as housekeeping gene).
hsp70, heat shock protein 70; irf3, interferon regulatory factor 3; gpx, glutathione peroxidase; cox, cytochrome c oxidase; ampkβ, adenosine-activated protein kinase beta; pparα, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors alpha; pparγ, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors gamma; g6pase, glucose-6-phosphatase.
