Data are presented as mean ± SEM of n = 5. The P values were derived from one-way ANOVA. Specific contrasts were generated by Tukey's post hoc comparisons. ∗ P ≤ 0.05 for comparison with ovariectomized rats treated with the vehicles for estrogen and PD123319. # P ≤ 0.05 for comparison with all ovariectomized rats. OV: ovariectomized, E: estradiol, PD: PD123319, BW: body weight, UW: uterus weight, KW: kidney weight, MAP: mean arterial pressure, RPP: renal perfusion pressure, RBF: renal blood flow per gram kidney weight, and RVR: renal vascular resistance.
