Effect of STAT3 decoy ODN transfection on liver, kidney, and heart injury in mice following CLP-induced sepsis. Tissues and blood samples were taken from sham-operated and CLP-induced septic mice 18 h after surgery. (A) Representative micrographs of liver, kidney, and heart sections stained with antibody against MPO followed by peroxidase staining. MPO-positive cells were stained brown and indicated by red arrowheads. Scale bar, 100 μm. The same results were obtained with two other experiments. (B) Serum levels of ALT (n = 5). (C) Western blots of NGAL protein expression. Typical blots are shown in the top traces. NGAL protein levels were normalized to GAPDH (n = 6). ***P < 0.001 compared with the respective control (18 h after sham operation). #P < 0.05 and ##P < 0.01 compared with CLP alone. (D) Kidney tissue sections were stained with anti-NGAL antibody followed by peroxidase staining. Scale bar, 100 μm. Shown are representative images from three independent experiments.
