Fig. 7

SIRT1 activation by pretreatment with SRT1720, PD, RSV and SIRT1 inhibition pre-treated with EX527 for 2 h, respectively. A Pathological observation of kidney tissue. H&E staining of kidney cortex (upper panel, 200×; inset: 400×; scale bar = 10 μm) and PAS staining of kidney cortex (lower panel, 200×; inset: 400×; scale bar = 10 μm). The irregular brush border (arrow) and ectasia of the affected tubules (arrowheads) was observed. B Tubular damage scores were evaluated based on H&E and PAS staining (n = 10). C Scr levels (n = 6). D Serum BUN levels (n = 6). Values shown are the mean ± SD. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01 and ***p < 0.001 vs the sham group; ##p < 0.01 and ###p < 0.001 vs the vehicle + CLP group.
