Effects of maltol on the levels of inflammation cytokines in cisplatin-induced renal toxicity. (A) Effects of maltol on the positive expressions of Bax, Bcl-2, iNOS and COX-2 in renal tissues were examined by IHC in renal tissues (magnification × 200), And the column chart shows stained area, semiquantitative analysis of Bax, Bcl-2, iNOS and COX-2 expression in kidneys to IHC. (B) Inflammation cytokines level of TNF-α, IL-1β, iNOS and NF-κB in serum of mice were measured by ELISA kits. All values were expressed as mean ± S.D. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01 vs. normal group; #p < 0.05, ##p < 0.01 vs. cisplatin group.
