Expression profiles of genes involved in the mitochondrial respiratory complex (MRC), and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in O. hupensis after WPN treatment. a Dynamic expression profile of genes coding for NADH dehydrogenase (NADH), succinic dehydrogenase (SDH), cytochrome C oxidase (CCO), ATPase, and cytochrome c reductase (CCR) in the whole snail determined using qPCR. b ROS production in the whole snail, head-foot region, and liver-gonad determined using the 2′,7′-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate (DCFH-DA) method. Asterisk indicates statistically significant difference (*P < 0.05) when the level is compared with that at 0 h for the same tissue. For other abbreviations, see Fig. 2
