Effect of GATE on renal function, hyperlipidemia and renal histopathological changes in ADR-induced NS mice. Blood was collected on day 0, 7, 14 and 25 after ADR injection. Then plasma levels of BUN (a), creatinine (b), total cholesterol (c) and triglyceride (d) were determined using the corresponding assay kits. The data were expressed as means ± SEM. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01 compared with control group; #p < 0.05, ##p < 0.01 compared with model group. At the end of experiment, mice were sacrificed and the right kidney was removed for histological analysis (e)
