Effect of IUGR on elastin mRNA transcript levels in homogenates of rat lung tissue. Results are shown as mean ± SD for n=6/group. White fill indicates male control, black fill indicated male IUGR, grey fill indicates female control and hatched fill indicates female IUGR. Panel a: male lung. Panel b: female lung. IUGR resulted in age-specific differences in lung elastin mRNA transcript levels. IUGR significantly decreased mRNA transcript levels of elastin in female pups compared to age-matched control female pups at P0, and P6. †Different from P0 (p<0.05). §Different from P6 (p<0.05). *Different from age and sex-matched IUGR (p<0.05). Non-parametric statistical tests were used (see Methods section).
