Figure 5. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) effects on the expression of early apoptotic proteins in mouse cardiac tissues.
(A) Expression of early apoptotic proteins in the heart of CKD mice. (B–E) Quantification of protein levels by using computer-assisted densitometry, and Gapdh levels for normalization. Data are expressed as percentages relative to the corresponding sham control. Values are expressed as mean ± SEM. *p < 0.05, compared with the sham group.
