Figure 6. RT-PCR analysis of BNP and GLP1R transcript levels in left ventricular myocardium harvested from 75-day-old FVB and TG9 mice.

Figure 6

Mice were treated with saxagliptin or vehicle starting at 42 days. Comparative real time PCR was performed to examine the relative mRNA expression of (A) GLP1R and (B) BNP transcripts in the left ventricles of saxagliptin- versus vehicle-treated TG9 animals relative to message from age-matched FVB controls. *, p<0.01 compared to FVB control mice (BNP only). Real time PCR shows no change in the relative expression levels of BNP or GLP1R transcripts between the two TG9 groups [n= 4 mice/group].
