Figure 1. Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) mRNA abundance in ischemic kidney peaks at 4 h reperfusion.

Figure 1

The mean values and standard deviation errors of four kidneys per point are shown. The y axis is the TLR4/GAPDH mRNA determined by quantitative reverse transcription-PCR and analyzed by the comparative Ct method. At each time point, the TLR4 Ct is normalized to the GAPDH Ct. The calibrator gene is TLR4 for the sham kidney at time zero, when the renal arterial clamp was removed. P<0.05 between sham and AKI at each time point.
