Figure 6

Ghrelin attenuated activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome in vivo and in vitro. (A, B) Expression of renal NLRP3 protein via western blot (A) and (B) relative protein levels normalized against β-actin in mice. **P < 0.01 versus Sham group; #P < 0.05 versus UUO group; ##P < 0.01 versus UUO group. (C, D) Expression of NLRP3 protein via western blot (C) and (D) relative protein levels normalized against β-actin in HK-2 cells. All values are means ± SEM (n = 6). *P < 0.01 versus Con (control) group; **P < 0.01 versus control group; #P < 0.05 versus Ang-II group; ##P < 0.01 versus Ang-II group.
