Effect of HSYA on kidney function tests in I/R-induced AKI in rats. (A) Chemical structure of hydroxysafflor yellow A. (B,C) Increases in blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and serum creatinine (Scr) levels at 24 h after I/R were abrogated by HSYA (92 mg/kg, administered intraperitoneally) (n = 8 rats/group). *P < 0.05 vs. sham-operated (Sham) group; #P < 0.05 vs. I/R + Vehicle group.
