SGK1 Attenuates Oxidative Stress-Induced Renal Tubular Epithelial Cell Injury by Regulating Mitochondrial Function

Figure 2

H2O2 time-dependently stimulates the SGK1-dependent signaling pathway in HK-2 cells. HK-2 cells were treated with 250 μM H2O2 for different time periods. (a) Representative western blot bands are shown at the top of the corresponding graphs. (b–e) Phosphorylated SGK1 (b), total SGK1 (c), phosphorylated GSK3β (d), and PGC-1α (e) protein levels were examined by western blot analysis. Relative protein levels were normalized to GAPDH and total GSK3β protein levels. Data are presented as the (). and vs. control.
