Pioglitazone Inhibits the Expressions of p22^phox and p47^phox in Rat Mesangial Cells In Vitro

Figure 2

Effects of pioglitazone on protein expression of p22^phox and p47^phox in HG-treated mesangial cells measured by western blot. (a) Pioglitazone inhibited p22^phox expression in mesangial cells. (b) Pioglitazone inhibited p47^phox expression in mesangial cells. The values (means ± SD) from six independent experiments are relative to the control, which is set as 1.0. ^∗𝑃<0.01 versus NG group; ^#𝑃<0.05 versus HG group.
