Figure 6. Effects of PVN infusion of PD98059 on PVN NOX4, a NAD (P) H oxidase subunit in salt-induced hypertensive rats.

Figure 6

(A) A representative immunofluorescence image of NOX4. (B) Densitometric analysis of NOX4. (C) A representative immunoblot image of NOX4. (D) Densitometric analysis of protein expression of NOX4. High-salt diet (HS) rats had higher levels of NOX4 compared with normal-salt (NS) rats (P < 0.05, n = 7). PVN infusion of PD98059 significantly attenuated NOX4 level within the PVN of HS rats (P < 0.05, n = 7). Values are mean ± SE. *P < 0.05 vs control (NS + PVN aCSF or NS + PVN PD98059); P < 0.05, HS + PVN PD98059 vs HS + PVN aCSF.
