Fig. 5.
Effect of β-sitosterol on VEGF mRNA expression in the kidney tissue of control and experimental rats. VEGF mRNA expression was normalized to the expression level of the GAPDH mRNA expression. The changes relative to control are represented in the bar diagram. Data shown are mean ± SD of four independent experiments. Values not sharing a common superscript differ significantly at P < 0.05 (DMRT)
