Apoptosis Mechanism of Emodin on Renal Toxicity in Mice
) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) were detected. Kidney index was calculated and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) and reduced glutathione/oxidized glutathione (GSH/GSSG) ratio were measured. The kidneys were taken for histopathological examination and the protein expression levels of transforming growth factor-

1
(TGF-
β
1
) and cysteine aspartic acid specific protease-3 (Caspase-3) were then detected by immunohistochemistry assay.

As compared with control group of the same sex
the weight of mice in the administration groups was decreased significantly
renal index was decreased while BUN and SCr levels were increased significantly (
