Effect of maternal LP diet on postnatal bumetanide-sensitive Na-K-2Cl cotransporter (NKCC2) protein abundance in cortex and medulla. NKCC2 protein abundance was assessed using SDS-PAGE and immunoblot from medulla and cortex of rats whose mothers were administered a LP diet compared with a control normal protein diet. There was an increase in NKCC2 protein abundance in the medulla but not in the cortex. *P < 0.01.
