Influence of the Expression of Inflammatory Markers on Kidney after Fetal Programming in an Experimental Model of Renal Failure

Figure 3

mRNA gene expression of MCP-1, IL-1, NOS3, TGF-β, TNF-α, and VEGF in the kidney of control offspring and diabetic offspring with or without folic acid, aged two months. (a) The gene expression of MCP-1 was increased in the CFA2 group; (b and c) the gene expression of IL-1 and NOS3 showed no significant difference between the study groups; (d) the gene expression of TGF-β was decreased in the DC2 group; (e and f) the gene expression of TNF-α and VEGF showed no significant difference between the groups.
