Figure 4

HIF2-EPO-EPO-R response of CKD mice with uncontrolled IL1 expression. Experimental groups include: wild type mice on a regular (WT) or adenine diet (WT-CKD), IL1-R antagonist knockout mice on regular diet (RaKO) or adenine (RaKO-CKD). Kidney hypoxia-inducible factor 2α (HIF2a) mRNA levels (A) and protein levels (normalized for β-actin). The lower panel shows a representative gel (B). Serum erythropoietin (EPO) levels (pg/mL) (C). Bone marrow EPO receptor (EPOR) (D) and transferrin receptor (TFR) (E) mRNA levels. n = 6–10 per group. Different letters above bars indicate a significant difference between groups, similar letters indicate no significant difference.
