Na+, sodium, K+, potassium; HDL, High Density Lipoprotein; LDL, Low density Lipoprotein; FFA, Free Fatty Acids; TG, triglyceride; BNP, Brain Natriuretic Peptide. Values are the mean±sem. Non-parametric ANOVAs analysis with two factors allowed the evaluation of interaction between aging and genotype. Student's T test * p<0.05; ** p<0.01, *** p<0.001 to compare SHHF cp/cp vs. SHHF+/? at same time point; § p<0.05; §§p<0.01, §§§ p<0.001 to compare T14-mo vs T1.5-mo for a same genotype; N stands for the number of samples; ns stands for not significant.
