Renal inflammation markers expression evaluated by qPCR. SHAM-operated (SHAM); CRF rats + vehicle (CRF + vehicle, Group 1), CRF rats + calcitriol (CRF + 1,25VD, Group 2), CRF rats + paricalcitol (CRF + PARI, Group 3). (A) ADAM17 mRNA. (B) TNF-α mRNA. (C) CD45 immunohistochemical quantification in all rats. (D) Representative photo of CD45 immunohistochemistry 20×. Data represent median and interquartile range. *P < 0.05 versus CRF + vehicle.
