Figure 2. Mean arterial pressure (MAP) responses at baseline and to altered dietary sodium intake.
Baseline blood pressures were similar in control and PCKO mice. With one-week of low sodium (<0.02% NaCl) diet, MAP fell significantly compared to normal salt diet and to a similar extent in both PCKO and control mice (*P<0.01 vs. normal salt diet). Similarly, with a high sodium (6% NaCl) diet, MAP increased (#P<0.01 vs. normal salt diet) but was not different between groups. Values are means ± SEM.
