Cleaved caspase-3 and CHOP expression in the post-ischemic kidneys.

<p>(A) Representative immunoblotting results from post-ischemic renal samples. (B–C) Quantitative analyses of the relative levels of protein expression. Cleaved caspase-3 and CHOP protein bands were quantified and normalized to β-actin. The mean value obtained from sham-operated mice was arbitrarily defined as 1. There were 6 mice in each group and data were expressed as mean ± SD. *P<0.05 vs. sham-operated controls.
