Figure 4. Protein expression of PI3K/Akt in the rat small intestine (sample size for each group=3). A: Western blotting images of p-Akt, total Akt, p-PI3K, and total PI3K; B: p-PI3K/total PI3K; C: p-Akt/total Akt. XBJ: Xuebijing; CLP: cecal ligation and puncture; PI3K: phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase; Akt: protein kinase B; p-Akt: phosphorylated Akt; p-PI3K: phosphorylated PI3K. Compared with the CLP group, *P<0.05; compared with the XBJ + axitinib group, #P<0.05.
