Renal expressions of (pro)renin receptor (PRR) mRNA (A) and PRR protein (B) in normoglycemic control rats (n = 5), and streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats (DM; n = 5) treated with PRR blocker (DM + PRRB; n = 5), valsartan (DM + VAL; n = 5), or PRRB plus valsartan (DM + PRRB +VAL; n = 5) after two weeks of STZ-induction of diabetes and drug treatment. Data are mean ± SEM. *P < 0.05 vs. control; #P < 0.05 vs. DM.
