Figure 8: Improved renal dysfunction in luteolin-receiving mice before ischaemic insult.
From: Protective role of fructokinase blockade in the pathogenesis of acute kidney injury in mice
(a) Serum creatinine levels in vehicle and luteolin-treated wild-type mice at 24 h post-ischaemic insult. (b) Representative periodic acid-Schiff-stained images in the same groups as in a. Scale bar: black 300 μm, red 100 μm. (c) Tubular lumen area in the same groups as in a. (d) Urinary NGAL levels in the same groups as in a. Data indicate mean±s.e.m. **P<0.01 and ***P<0.001. n=6 animals per group. Statistical analysis by two-tail t-test. Green arrows denote tubules with significant dilatation. Yellow asterisks: cast formation in tubes.
