From: Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 plays a pathogenic role in BSA-induced kidney injury in diabetic mice

BSA-injected diabetic mice exhibited high tubular levels of DPP-4, CAV1 and EMT program; TENE treatment ameliorated these alterations. Immunohistochemical analysis of (a–d) DPP-4, (e–h) CAV1, (i–l) snail and (m–p) AQP-1 from the BSA-injected control or diabetic mice with or without the TENE treatment. Scale bar, 50 μm. Representative images from n = 7 in each group are shown. Each group was analyzed with an unpaired two-tailed t-test. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01. Data are presented as mean ± s.e.m (q–t).
