Cordyceps cicadae Prevents Renal Tubular Epithelial Cell Apoptosis by Regulating the SIRT1/p53 Pathway in Hypertensive Renal Injury

Table 1

Effects of Cordyceps cicadae (C. cicadae) and resveratrol (RES) on body weight, systolic blood pressure (BP), and diastolic BP in Wistar–Kyoto (WKY) rats and spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs).

	WKY	SHR	C. cicadae	RES
Body weight (g)	365 ± 17	348 ± 30	343 ± 11	341 ± 30
Food intake (g/d)	15	15	15	15
Systolic BP (mmHg)	123 ± 17	178 ± 9^###	171 ± 10	179 ± 14
Diastolic BP (mmHg)	101 ± 14	127 ± 19^##	140 ± 9	143 ± 13

Data are expressed as mean ± SEM. and , as compared with WKY. C. cicadae: SHRs treated with 4 g/kg/d C. cicadae; RES : SHRs treated with 40 mg/kg/d resveratrol.
