Fig. 4

Relative protein levels of histone lysine deacetylases in R. sylvatica kidneys as determined by Western immunoblotting. (A) Histogram showing mean (± SEM, n=4) standardized expression levels of control, 24 h freezing and 8 h thawed conditions. For each HDAC, values that share the same letter designation are not significantly different from one another, while values with different letter designation are significantly different (p < 0.05). (B) Representative western blots for individual HDACs as well as p-HDAC4 and p-HDAC8 under each experimental condition. Data are mean ± SEM (n = 4 independent trials). Statistical significance for freezing and thawing values, relative to the standardized control, was determined using one-way ANOVA with Tukey’s post hoc test where a, b, c that share the same letters were not statistically different from one another (*—p < 0.05). Original full blots are presented in Supplementary Figure S1. .
