Figure 1From: Brain death induces renal expression of heme oxygenase-1 and heat shock protein 70qPCR results showed a massive increase in renal HO-1 mRNA levels of brain dead rats. A significant increase in HSP70 expression was also seen. qPCR for HSP27 and HSP40 did not reveal differences in mRNA expression between control and brain dead groups.Back to article page
