Figure 3. Analysis of cardiac gene expression in ventricular tissue obtained 2 and 8 weeks after surgically induced renal injury or sham surgery.

Figure 3

Ventricular tissue was homogenized, RNA was purified, and the expression of the atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) and β-myosin heavy chain (β-MHC) genes was analyzed by quantitative real-time RT-PCR. The specific mRNA levels for Sham (white) vs SIRI (gray) were measured in samples from 3 or 4 mice for each condition (indicated by the number in parentheses). *P<0.01 vs sham.
