TABLE 5

Comparison of CYP and accessory protein (P450 oxidoreductase, POR; cytochrome B5A, CYB5A) abundance in liver microsomes from four different dog breeds and 13 mixed-breed dogs

Shown are the median and interquartile range (25%–75%) for each breed and mixed-breed dogs and the results of ANOVA on rank-transformed data. In instances where ANOVA results were significant (P < 0.05), Dunn’s test was used to isolate breed groups that were significantly different from each other in the abundance of that protein.
