rhFGF21 significantly reduces tubular cell damage in AKI mouse model. (A) Changes in mouse BUN levels. (B) Changes in mouse serum creatinine levels. (C–F) Representative immunoblotting analysis of TIM-1, C-caspase 3, and Bax in mouse renal tissue. Expression levels of TIM-1, C-caspase 3, and Bax were quantified by densitometry, with GAPDH as protein loading control. (G) H&E staining of mouse renal tissue (scale bar: 100 μm). (H) Histopathological scores of H&E staining of mouse kidney tissue. ***P < 0.001, **P < 0.01, *P < 0.05.
