Hemorrhage potentiates TILLIR-induced injury in the renal cortex. (A) Representatives of TILLIR-induced renal tubular degeneration and necrosis. Increased hematoxylin/eosin staining indicates tubular degeneration and necrosis (arrow). (B) Compared with Control, TILLIR increased renal tubular degeneration and necrosis, but hemorrhage had no additive effect. (C) Representatives of TILLIR-induced increase of KIM-1 immunohistochemical staining. (D) TILLIR did not significantly increase KIM-1 protein abundance in the absence of hemorrhage. However, it showed a significant increase in KIM-1 protein abundance in the presence of hemorrhage when compared to the hemorrhage only group. In A and B, n = 6 for the control, n = 8 for the hemorrhage only, n = 9 for the tourniquet only and hemorrhage + tourniquet, respectively. In (C,D), n = 8. *p < 0.05, Two-way ANOVA. Scale bars: 20 µm.
