Human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUCMSCs) upregulated renal Nrf2 expression. The effects of hUCMSCs on diabetic rats were compared at the protein level for nuclear Nrf2 (a) and cytoplasmic Nrf2 (b). n = 5 per group. c Immunofluorescence staining for Nrf2 was performed (scale bar = 40 μm). *P < 0.05 vs. Ctrl group; #P < 0.05 vs DM group
