Overexpression of SphK1 reverses the effects of BA on oxidative stress and inflammation in HG-treated HK-2 cells. (AC) SOD activity (A), CAT activity (B), and MDA level (C) in HK-2 cells transfected with or without ov-SphK1 before treatment with HG (30 mM) or HG+BA (10 µM). (DF) IL-1β secretion (D), IL-6 production (E), and TNF-α level (F) in the culture supernatant of HK-2 cells treated as indicated. **P<0.01 and ***P<0.001 vs control; ##P<0.01 and ###P<0.001 vs HG treatment; &P<0.05, &&P<0.01, and &&&P<0.001 vs HG+BA treatment.

Abbreviations: SOD, superoxide dismutase; CAT, catalase; MDA, malondialdehyde; IL-1β, interleukin-1β; IL-6, interleukin-6; TNF-α, tumor necrosis factor-α.
