Effects of recombinant KL, Rap, and 3-MA on renal CASP3 expression in mice with CLP-induced AKI.

Notes: (A) Images of CASP3 IHC. (B) Quantitative analysis of IHC staining. *P<0.05 vs CLP+media. Mice received recombinant KL (0.01 mg/kg) 1 hour after CLP. Rap (1 mg/kg) or 3-MA (30 mg/kg) was administered by intraperitoneal injection 2 hours before CLP surgery. Mouse renal tissues were collected 24 hours after CLP. Sections were stained with anti-CASP3 (1:100; Cell Signaling Technology, Inc., Danvers, MA, USA) at 4°C overnight. Images at 200× magnification were acquired using a biological imaging microscope (BX53; Olympus Corporation, Tokyo, Japan).

Abbreviations: Rap, rapamycin; 3-MA, 3-methyladenine; CLP, cecal ligation and puncture; AKI, acute kidney injury; CMC, carboxymethyl cellulose; IHC, immunohistochemistry.
