Methane 13-20 caspase 3 Rattus norvegicus 302-311 27208496-9 2016 Meanwhile, methane treatment significantly increased the anti-apoptotic gene (Bcl-2) expression and decreased the pro-apoptotic gene (Bax) expression, accompanied by the suppression of caspase-3 and caspase-9 activity. Methane 11-18 caspase 3 Rattus norvegicus 185-194 26009821-10 2015 Moreover, methane-rich saline reduced the amount of caspase-3 and the number of apoptotic cells. Methane 10-17 caspase 3 Rattus norvegicus 52-61
