Effects of hFGF-21 on inflammatory cytokine expression levels in renal epithelial cells isolated from clinical patients. (A) Gene expression levels of TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β and IL-8 in renal epithelial cells isolated from clinical patients treated with hFGF-21 or not treated with hFGF-21. (B) Protein expression levels of TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β and IL-8 in renal epithelial cells isolated from clinical patients treated with hFGF-21 or not treated with hFGF-21. **P<0.01. hFGF-21, human fibroblast growth factor-21; TNF, tumor necrosis factor; IL, interleukin.
