(a) Total blood loss; (b) normalized total blood loss. Saline treated: Group 1, VLHL PAI-1 treated: Group 2, mouse tPA treated: Group 3, and mouse tPA + VLHL treated: Group 4. Blood loss was normalized by adjusting volume of blood by ratio of weight of the resected piece of kidney to remaining kidney. Statistical significance of differences between different treatment groups are in Table 2.
