Antioxidant effect of PDS on LPS-induced oxidative stress in kidney.

<p>A: The levels of MDA, B: The activities of SOD (C) in kidney tissues of mice. C: Expression of Mn-SOD in kidney tissues detected by western blotting. D: Density ratio of Mn-SOD with β-actin. LPS: lipopolysaccharide; PDS: Panaxadiol saponins; Dexa: dexamethasone. Data represent mean ± SEM. ^#P<0.05 and ^##P<0.01 vs. control group; *P<0.05 vs. LPS group (n = 8 for A,B, or n = 3 for C,D, per group).
