Western blot and densitometric analysis of Rhbg (A, C) and Rhcg (B, D) in the cortex (Co) and outer medulla (OM) of VH- (□)) or CsA-treated rat kidneys (■). Each lane was loaded with a sample from a different animal. Both of Rhbg and Rhcg are prominent with a size of 50 kDa. At 1 week, there was a significant increase in the protein level of Rhbg in the CsA group compared with the VH group. But Rhcg was not changed significantly between the 2 groups. At 4 weeks, there was no significant difference in the protein level of Rhbg between the experimental groups. However, the amount of Rhcg significantly decreased in the CsA group treated for 4 weeks compared with the VH group treated for 4 weeks. VH1 = Vehicle group treated for 1 week; CsA1 = cyclosporine group treated for 1 week; VH4 = vehicle group treated for 4 weeks; CsA4 = cyclosporine group treated for 4 weeks. Values are referred to VH as 100%. * p < 0.05 vs. VH.
