Figure 3

Effect of genistein on the cellular apoptosis and proliferation following I/R injury. Mice were treated as described in Figure 1. The data were expressed as the mean ± SEM; n = 6; * p < 0.05 vs. Sham; # p < 0.05 vs. I/R. (a) Representative photomicrograph of TUNEL-positive cells stained kidney tissues from the I/R and G15 groups and the percentage of positive cells is illustrated; (b) Cleaved caspase-3 and pro-caspase-3 expression was analyzed by western blotting; (c) Representative photomicrograph of PCNA-positive cells stained kidney tissues from the I/R and G15 groups and the percentage of positive cells is illustrated. Original magnification, 400×. The black arrows indicate the positive cells.
