“QN” agarwood downregulated EGFR and improved autophagy in podocytes. A Immunofluorescence co-localization staining of the marker synaptopodin of podocytes with LC3B (a marker of autophagy), Scale bar = 100X. B The expression levels of Egfr, and Nphs1 mRNA in the renal tissue. C, D WB of EGFR in the kidney. ^##p < 0.01, ^###p < 0.001 versus CON group; ^*p < 0.05, ^**p < 0.01, ^***p < 0.001 versus DKD group
