Kidney function in CKD mice with PC-AKI. Kidney function assessed by A; serum creatinine and B; Blood urea nitrogen (BUN) levels in CKD mice at 2, 7, and 28 days of contrast (C) or saline (S) administration. (A) There is a significant increase in serum creatinine in the mice with contrast (C) compared to saline (S) administration at 2, 7, and 28 days. (B). There is a significant increase Blood urea nitrogen (BUN) in the mice treated with contrast (C) administration compared to saline (S) at 28 days later. Each bar shows the mean ± SEM of 4–6 animals per group. Two-way ANOVA with Student t test was performed. Significant differences among (C) treated animals and S animals is indicated by *P < 0.05.
