Calcineurin and calpain were abnormal in PAN-treated podocytes. by Fangrui Ding (659863)

“…Compared to untreated control podocytes, calcineurin activity was up-regulated in podocytes treated with various concentrations of PAN (25, 50, 75, 100, or 125 μg/ml) after 24 h. (B, C) Interestingly, the protein expression of full-length 60-kDa calcineurin was decreased in a dose-dependent manner in PAN-treated podocytes; this effect was the opposite of that observed on calcineurin activity. …”
