Fenofibrate treatment attenuated fibrosis in a rat model of renal transplantation. A Schematic view of the treatment of fenofibrate in a rat model of renal transplantation. B Gross morphology of bilateral kidneys from rat underwent kidney transplantation (KT). C IF detected the expression of ACOX1 and α-SMA in transplanted kidney of rats, cell nuclei were strained in blue, renal tubular epithelial cells were stained green, ACOX1 was stained violet, and α-SMA was stained red. Scale bar: 50 μm. D HE, Masson, and Sirius Red staining in transplanted kidney from rat models with or without fenofibrate treatment. Scale bar: 50 μm. E Relative fibrosis level compared fenofibrate treatment group with control group. Significance was determined by Student’s t test. *** P < 0.001
