Effects of sc infusion of Ang II at 200 ng/kg/min (left panels) and at 1000 ng/kg/min (right panels) on mean arterial pressure (MAP) during the day and night in wild-type (WT) controls (
n = 6 and 5), Nedd4-2
−/− (
n = 4 and 6),
(
n = 7 for high dose only), and
/Nedd4-2
−/− (
n = 4 and 4). Values represent the mean ± SEM of the changes from baseline (day −1 to 0). **
P < 0.001; *
P < 0.05 versus baseline. Between-group changes were compared for areas under the curve:
