Effects of maslinic acid treatment on kidney/body weight (a), Urea (b), BUN (c) and Creatinine (d) in serum of mice model of diabetic nephropathy at the end of 8-week treatment. Serum levels of blood urea nitrogen (BUN), urea, and creatinine (Cr) were analyzed by an automatic analyzer (cobas® 8000 modular analyzer series. Roche Diagnostics). N = 14 for each group. Data are presented as mean ± SD. ##p < 0.01, ###p < 0.001 compared to NC group, *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01compared to STZ group
