Systemic AGP knockout exacerbates renal function and renal inflammation at day 1 after renal ischemia–reperfusion. (A) Blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and (B) serum creatine (SCr) were measured at day 1 after renal IR (n = 14). The mRNA expression of (C) IL-6, (D) TNF-α, (E) IL-1β and (F) F4/80 in kidney at day 1 after renal IR were determined by real-time PCR (n = 6–7). Data are expressed as means ± SE.
