Fig. 2From: Knockout of interleukin-17A protects against sepsis-associated acute kidney injuryChanges in creatinine and blood urea nitrogen in the four groups. IL-17 knockout significantly reduced creatinine (Cr) and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) levels 24 h after CLP injury compared with the levels in wild-type CLP mice. # P < 0.05 compared with the sham group. *P < 0.05 compared with the wild-type CLP group. Wild-type sham group n = 20, IL-17A−/− sham group n = 20, wild-type CLP group n = 1 2, and IL-17A−/− septic group n = 15Back to article page
