Figure Legend Snippet: HK-2 cells were treated with graded concentrations of 11-Ketodihydrotestosterone, Cuminaldehyde, or trans-3-Indoleacrylic acid, and viability was assessed by CCK-8. Panels ( a – c ) show cytotoxicity in unchallenged cells: ( a ) trans-3-Indoleacrylic acid (0–500 µM) was non-toxic, with 500 µM significantly enhancing viability; ( b ) Cuminaldehyde (0–1280 µM) exhibited no toxicity; ( c ) 11-Ketodihydrotestosterone (0–1000 nM) exhibited no toxicity. Panels (d–f) show protective effects in LPS-stimulated cells: ( d ) 500 µM trans-3-Indoleacrylic acid enhanced viability; ( e ) Cuminaldehyde at 128 µM and 1280 µM enhanced viability; ( f ) 11-Ketodihydrotestosterone showed no significant protective effect across 0–1000 nM. * p < 0.05 vs. Model group, ** p < 0.001 vs. Model group, **** p < 0.001 vs. Model group, ns for p > 0.05 vs. Model group.
Techniques Used: CCK-8 Assay
Figure Legend Snippet: Western blot analysis of EGFR activation and fibrotic marker expression in LPS-challenged HK-2 cells treated with 500 µM trans-3-Indoleacrylic acid or 1280 µM Cuminaldehyde. ( a ) Representative Western blot images showing p-EGFR (Tyr845), EGFR, α-SMA and β-actin expression in HK-2 cells across Sham, LPS, LPS + trans-3-Indoleacrylic acid, and LPS + Cuminaldehyde groups. ( b ) The analysis of p-EGFR (Tyr845) expression indicated that LPS markedly increased EGFR phosphorylation, whereas treatment with trans-3-Indoleacrylic acid or Cuminaldehyde significantly reduced p-EGFR levels. ( d ) EGFR expression remained unchanged across all groups. ( d ) The analysis of α-SMA expression revealed that LPS induced a pronounced upregulation of this fibrotic marker, which was significantly attenuated by both trans-3-Indoleacrylic acid and Cuminaldehyde interventions. * p < 0.05 vs. Model group, ns for p > 0.05 vs. Model group.
