Plasma total bilirubin, direct (conjugated) bilirubin, and unconjugated bilirubin levels

Group	Total bilirubin, mg/dl	Direct bilirubin, mg/dl	Unconjugated bilirubin, mg/dl
Ang II	1.32±0.06	0.13±0.02	1.18±0.03
Ang II + Apo	1.30±0.09	0.13±0.01	1.30±0.09
Ang II + UGT1A1 AS	1.92±0.1 *	0.04±0.01*	1.88±0.1*
Ang II + Apo + UGT1A1 AS	1.97±0.12*	0.02±0.01*	1.95±0.13*

Plasma was collected at the end of the experimental protocol. Total and direct bilirubin levels were measured independently and use to determine the level of unconjugated bilirubin. n = 5 per group.Abbreciations: Ang II, angiotensin II; Apo, apocynin treated; AS, antisense; UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 1A1.*P < 0.05 compared with Ang II treated.
