Jian-Pi-Yi-Shen Formula Alleviates Chronic Kidney Disease in Two Rat Models by Modulating QPRT/NAD+/SIRT3/Mitochondrial Dynamics Pathway

Figure 6

JPYSF modulated mitochondrial dynamics in CKD rats. Representative Western blot images (a) and densitometric analyses (b) of Drp-1 and OPA-1 protein expression in the setting of 5/6 Nx-induced CKD. Representative Western blot images (c) and densitometric analyses (d) of Drp-1 and OPA-1 protein expression in the setting of adenine-induced CKD. All proteins expression was normalized to β-actin content. Data are presented as the means ± SEM, n = 6 rats per group ( compared with the sham or the control group; compared with the 5/6 Nx-CKD or the adenine-CKD group; compared with the adenine-CKD group).
