NFκB-p65 levels in wild type and CSE−/− mice under varying oxygen conditions. Wild type (WT) and CSE−/− mice were either sacrificed under normoxic conditions, or placed in hypoxia (11% O2) for 72 hours prior to sacrifice with twice-daily injections of saline or Na2S. Kidneys were harvested and frozen at time of sacrifice. Western blots were performed using protein extracted from mouse renal tissue in order to determine NFκB -p65 levels in the various groups. n=3. Values are mean ± standard deviation. *p<0.05.
