Pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 4 (PDK4) is induced in ischemia-reperfusion (IR) kidney injury in diabetic mice. (A) Hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining in mouse kidneys (original magnification ×200; scale bar, 100 μm; arrows, damaged tubules). (B) Relative mRNA level of Pdk isoforms in mice kidney tissues. (C) Protein expression and quantitative graph of PDK isoforms in mice kidney tissues. (D) Immunohistochemical image of p-pyruvate dehydrogenase E1α (p-PDHE1α) expression in mice kidney tissues (original magnification: ×200; scale bar, 100 μm; arrow, positive regions). (E) Protein expression and quantitative graph of p-PDHE1α in mice kidney tissues. Data are the mean±standard error of the mean. STZ, streptozotocin. aP<0.01 vs. Control, bP< 0.05, cP<0.01, dP<0.001 vs. STZ.
