Figure 1. Free fatty acid (FFA) induced human podocyte apoptosis.

Figure 1

Podocytes were treated with 25 µM or 125 µM of palmitate for 24 h and then tunnel staining for podocytes was undertaken. Semiquantitative analysis was performed by calculating the apoptosis cells/filed (A). In addition, cleaved-caspase 3 (B) and bcl-2-associated death promoter protein (BAD) (C) protein levels were analyzed by Western blot assay. Data are presented as mean ± SE (n = 3 individual experiments). *, P <0.05 vs. control group.
