Fig. 3: Kidney and liver function tests and animal weights of different experimental groups at different experimental periods.

Kidney function tests (a, b), liver function tests (c, d), hemoglobin (e), EPO (f), weight (g) Data are presented as mean ± SD. n = 5. a significantly different from control mice, b significantly different from untreated CKD mice, c significantly different from CKD-3WJ mice by ANOVA followed by Bonferroni post hoc test (p < 0.05) at the same time point. *: significantly different from the first week’s results, #: significantly different from the second week’s results by ANOVA followed by Bonferroni post hoc test (p < 0.05). ALT alanine aminotransferase, AST aspartate aminotransferase, EPO Erythropoietin.
