Effect of β-adducin knockout on systolic blood pressure and proteinuria/creatinine ratio in mice. Indirect systolic blood pressure (upper) and urinary protein excretion normalized for urinary creatinine (lower) were measured in male and female wild-type (WT) and knockout (KO) mice at 8 and 11 months of age. Similar results have been obtained at the two ages. The figure shows the results at 11 months. Data are mean ± SEM. Mouse numbers are indicated in the bars. **p < 0.01 KO vs. WT
