Figure 1. Plasma creatinine (A) and creatinine clearance (B), as well as proteinuria (C) in control rats, rats treated with gum arabic (15% w/v in drinking water) and rats treated with adenine (0.75% w/w) alone in feed, or with adenine and gum arabic given concomitantly at the same dose for 28 days.

Each column and vertical bar represents the mean ± SEM (n = 6). ** p<0.01, *** p<0.001 vs. control, ^# p≤0.05, ^### p<0.001 vs. adenine treatment.
