Effect of Alcohol Exposure on the Expression of Apoptosis Gene of Embryonic Hearts in E17.5. a, b The mRNA levels of caspase-3 and caspase-8 increased more with alcohol exposure, compared with the control group. c The mRNA levels of bcl-2 decreased more in the alcohol group than in the control group. d, e, f Western blot band. g, h Western blotting showed that prenatal alcohol exposure increased the expression of cleaved caspase-3 and decreased the expression of caspase-3. i, j Western blotting showed that pregnant alcohol exposure increased the expression of cleaved caspase-8 and decreased the expression of caspase-8. k Western blotting showed that bcl-2 significantly decreased in alcohol group than in control group. *p < 0.05
