2 Figure 1 Representative Western blot and group data depicting hepatic tissue microsomal 3-hydroxy-3 methyglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase protein abundance and plasma cholesterol concentration in the 34-week-old Imai rats with focal glomerulosclerosis (FGS) and the age-matched normal control group.N = 6 in each group. *P < 0.01.

3 Figure 2 Representative Western blot and group data depicting hepatic tissue microsomal cholesterol 7α-hydroxylase (CH-7α) protein abundance and 3-hydroxy-3 methyglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase-to-cholesterol 7α-hydroxylase ratio in the 34-week-old Imai rats with focal glomerulosclerosis (FGS) and the age-matched normal control group.N = 6 in each group. No significant difference was found. Kidney International  , DOI: ( /j x) Copyright © 2003 International Society of Nephrology Terms and Conditions

4 Figure 3 Representative Western blot and group data depicting hepatic tissue plasma membrane low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor protein abundance and plasma LDL concentration in the 34-week-old Imai rats with focal glomerulosclerosis (FGS) and the age-matched normal control group.N = 6 in each group. *P < 0.01.

5 Figure 4 Representative Western blot and group data depicting hepatic tissue acyl CoA:cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT-2) protein abundance, liver-free cholesterol and plasma very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) concentration in the 34-week-old Imai rats with focal glomerulosclerosis (FGS) and the age-matched normal control group.N = 6 in each group. *P < 0.01.

6 Figure 5 Plasma lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) protein concentration plasma-free cholesterol and high-density lipoprotein (LDL) to high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol ratio in the 34-week-old Imai rats with focal glomerulosclerosis (FGS) and the age-matched normal control group.N = 6 animals in each group. *P < 0.01.
