Figure 2. The effect of high salt (HS) on renal cortical nNOS in the female mRen2.Lewis rat.

Figure 2

Left panel: The mRNA data were expressed as the ratio of the target gene to 18 S rRNA. Data are mean ± SE; *p<0.05 compared to NS group; n=6-7. Western blot analysis data are expressed as the ratio of protein to EF-1α. Data are mean ± SE; *p<0.05 compared to NS group; n=3-4. Right panel: Immunohistochemical distribution of nNOS in the renal cortex from the normal salt (NS) and the high salt (HS) fed groups. The nNOS immunoreactivity was localized to macula densa (MD) in the NS group and to MD (black arrow) and cortical tubules in the HS group. Magnification: 400×.
