Values are mean ± SE from wild-type, Id1+/−, and Id1null mice exposed to normoxia or 1-wk or 3-wk hypoxia. Mouse numbers are indicated (n). RVSP, right ventricular systolic pressure; RV, right ventricle; LV, left ventricle; S, septal.
P < 0.05 vs. corresponding genotype normoxic control; P < 0.05 vs. female wild type 3 wk hypoxia by one-way ANOVA with Bonferroni correction.
