Effects of pharmacological intervention on renal cortical MDA level (A), renal cortical expression of SOD (B) and PKC-α (C). Western blot analysis of SOD and PKC-α expression in the whole cell lysate fraction of renal cortical tissues (cropped blots) normalized by β-actin. Full-length blots are presented in Supplementary Figure 2. Bar graphs presented show mean ± SEM. n = 6 rats per group. C - control group; DM - diabetic group; DMI - diabetic plus insulin group; DMIS - diabetic plus insulin and atorvastatin group; DMS - diabetic plus atorvastatin group; CS - control plus atorvastatin. *p < 0.05 vs. control group and control plus atorvastatin groups, p < 0.05 vs. diabetic group, p < 0.05 vs. diabetic plus insulin group, and #p < 0.05 vs. diabetic plus atorvastatin group.
