All genes were significantly altered by both strain and gender (P<0.05), followed the direction of albuminuria in the four groups assessed, and varied by >1.5-fold in individual comparisons between different sexes in both B6 and FVB/N mice and between mice of the same sex but from different strains. Fold changes are presented relative to B6 female mice (given a value of 1) that had the lowest albumin excretion rate. NA, not available.
