Verification of the changes in protein level in mouse liver following the administration of high-dose concentrations of KRG. Cystathionine β-synthase (CBS) and cystathionine γ-lyase (CSE) protein levels compared to β-actin via Western blots (A). H2S production based on ELISA (B). Changes in protein levels with increased H2S and the effects on liver injury (C) and the gluconeogenesis pathway (D) in mouse liver following the administration of high-dose concentrations of KRG. Bands were quantified using a densitometer in the ImageJ program, and the H2S results are expressed as mean ± SE (n = 5–6). Statistical significance was set at * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, and ***p < 0.001 compared with the control based on an ANOVA (SPSS Statistics 23 software package, https://www.ibm.com/analytics/spss-statistics-software).
