Abstract Acute kidney injury (AKI), commonly occurring as complications of sepsis, cardiac surgery, and liver or kidney
transplantation, is a critical care syndrome. It is well known that lipopolysaccharide (LPS) shock is a common triggering
factor for AKI. This study is aimed to examine the effect of flavonoid compound hispidulin on LPS-induced AKI. For
this, renal tubular epithelial cell HK-2 was treated with LPS to establish an in vitro model of AKI. The effect of
hispidulin on HK-2 cell viability was examined using CCK-8 assay. Cell apoptosis was determined by TUNEL and flow
cytometry. Apoptosis marker proteins were determined by using… More >
