The molecular (qRT-PCR and Western Blot) and cellular profiling (IHC staining and Flow Cytometry) of the immune responses illustrates that kaempferol decreases the expression of adhesion molecular genes (ICAM-1 and VCAM-1) and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), thereby inhibiting F4/80+ macrophages infiltration in CLP-induced acute kidney injury. The gene discussed is CCL2; the disease is acute kidney injury.
