Effects of Huai Qi Huang (HQH) on zinc-finger E-box binding homeobox ZEB1 and ZEB2 mRNA levels in the obstructed kidneys of UUO rats and NRK-52E cells stimulated with transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1). (a and b) Representative RT-PCR bands and graphic presentation showed levels of ZEB1 and ZEB2 mRNA in obstructed kidneys on day 14 after obstruction. p < 0.05 versus vehicle-treated UUO rats on the same day after obstruction. Five rats in each dosage group. The bars show mean ± SEM. (c and d) The relative abundance of ZEB1 and ZEB2 mRNA induced by 10 ng/mL TGF-β1 treatment for 3 h in NRK-52E cells. p < 0.05 versus positive control group with the TGF-β1 group at the same time point. All experiments were repeated for three times. The bars showed mean ± SEM.
