Furthermore, the protein level of Bcl-2 (P = 0.515) was slightly increased, and those of Bax (P = 0.045), cleaved caspase-3 (P = 0.006) and Cyt-C (P < 0.001) were significantly lower in the Res+PC–AKI group compared with the PC–AKI group. The gene discussed is CASP3; the disease is acute kidney injury.
