Effect of meloxicam and ibuprofen on UT-A1 abundance in rat inner medullary tip and base.

<p>Shown are representative Western blots (left hand panels) from IM tips or bases from rats after 14 days treatment with or without meloxicam (top) or ibuprofen (bottom) probed for total UT-A1 (arrows). The arrows show the two major glycosylated forms of UT-A1 at 117 and 97 kDa. L.C. = loading control. The right hand panels provide combined densitometry from n = 12 rats per group. All proteins were normalized to loading controls. Bars = Mean ± SEM; *P<0.05 compared with control rats.
