Involvement of mitochondrial oxidative stress in the downregulation of glyoxalase-1 (Glo-1) induced by interleukin-1β (IL-1β) in a primary culture of murine chondrocytes. Cells were treated with a scavenger of mitochondrial ROS, MitoTEMPO (50 mM). a Quantitative RT-PCR analysis of mRNA levels of Glo-1 relative to hypoxanthine guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT), n = 5 for each condition. b Dimeric Glo-1 protein expression relative to Ponceau staining, n = 5 in each group. c Glo-1 enzymatic activity, n = 5 in each group. d Ponceau staining and Western blot as an illustrative example. Data are presented as median and interquartile range. **p = 0.0313
