COXI (A and B) and COXIV (C and D) protein expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from healthy subjects (HS), chronic kidney disease (CKD IV–V) and hemodialysis (HD) patients. Panel A and C show a representative western blotting experiment respectively for COXI and COXIV. The histograms represent the mean ± SD of COXI (panel B) and COXIV (panel D) protein levels in total cell lysate of 12 HS, 10 CKD IV–V and 14 HD patients assessed by Western blotting. COXI and COXIV protein level was significantly higher in HD and CKD compared to HS.
