Levels of phosphorylated vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein (pVASP) expression after sepsis induction. Three times, 3 h, 6 h, and 12 h after sepsis, the renal arteries were isolated and the content of pVASP was quantified by immunoblot. Representative western blots are positioned above the correspondent bar group, in each sham and sepsis group, and densitometric analyses quantification is depicted in bar graphs. The results are expressed as the mean ± S.E.M. in VASPSer239 phosphorylation (arbitrary units) (n = 6 animals in each group). *p < 0.05 compared to the sham group
