| Group | Body Weight g | Left Kidney Weight, g | Right Kidney Weight, g | Left Kidney NE, ng/g | Right Kidney NE, ng/g |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ShC sham cryo (n = 11) | 442 ± 10 | 1.291 ± 0.098 | 1.278 ± 0.087 | 100 ± 6 | 92 ± 6 |
| ShC cryo-DNX (n = 9) | 446 ± 6 | 1.267 ± 0.024 | 1.273 ± 0.083 | 106 ± 6 | 16 ± 4*† |
| 2K-1C sham cryo (n = 9) | 415 ± 8 | 1.264 ± 0.030 | 1.146 ± 0.026* | 88 ± 8 | 82 ± 8 |
| 2K-1C cryo-DNX (n = 11) | 432 ± 15 | 1.369 ± 0.201 | 1.181 ± 0.038* | 104 ± 11 | 24 ± 6*† |
Values are means ± SE. NE, norepinephrine; ShC, sham clipped; 2K-1C, two-kidney, one-clip; DNX, denervated; cryo-DNX, cryotreatment; sham cryo, sham cryotreatment.
