Figure 4.
Stromal derived factor 1 (SDF-1) expression in the urethra (A), vagina (B), rectum (C) and bladder (D) of Lewis rats in control, as well as immediately (VD imm), and 24 hours after VD (VD 24hr). Each bar represents the mean +/- standard error of the mean of data from 4 rats. * indicates a significant difference compared to comparable control. Values on y-axis are relative expression after normalization to GAPDH results for each specimen and subsequently to the mean of the control group for each organ.
