Figure 4. iNOS and Arg-1 expression using qRT-PCR.

Figure 4

Inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and arginase-1 (Arg-1) expression using quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) in graft veins and control veins at 3 and 7 days after arteriovenous fistula placement in mice with established chronic kidney disease. There is a significant increase in the mean Arg-1 expression with a decrease in iNOS between day 3 and 7. Each bar shows the mean ± SEM of 3 samples per group. Two-way analysis of variance with Student t test with post hoc Bonferroni correction was performed. P < 0.05.
