Renal auto-transplantation promotes cortical microvascular network remodeling in a preclinical porcine model
Fig 6
Renal transplantation induces profibrotic and antiangiogenic pathways associated with decreased NO production.
Western blot analysis of proteins involved in profibrotic and antiangiogenic pathways in cortex samples from uni-nephrectomized and grafted kidneys. (B) Evaluation of NO production by quantification of nitrite + nitrate. Values (mean ± SEM) significantly different from those of the uni-nephrectomized kidney group are represented by **p < 0.01; *p < 0.05.
