Figure 2. Elevated IL-6 mRNA in the kidneys contributes to proteinuria in Ang II-infused mice.

Figure 2

Wild type (WT) and IL-6-deficient mice were infused with Ang II for 2 weeks. (A) IL-6 mRNA was elevated in the kidneys of Ang II-infused mice after two week Ang II infusion. (B-C) Albumin and creatinine concentrations were measured in 24-hour collected mouse urine of the WT and IL-6-deficient mice on day 7 (B) and day 14 (C) with or without Ang II infusion. Data are expressed as mean ± s.e.m. (n = 6). *P < 0.05 versus WT mice. **P < 0.05 versus Ang II-infused WT mice.
