Antenatal Beta attenuates nitric oxide production to Ang-(1–7) in male but not female RPTC. Nitric oxide production was expressed as percentage of basal levels (% of control) in RPTC from male (A; vehicle, □, n = 5; Beta, ■, n = 5) and female (B; control, vehicle, □, n = 5; glucocorticoid-treated, Beta, ■, n = 5) animals treated with 1 pM Ang-(1–7) alone, with d-Ala (+D-Ala; 10 µM), or with l-NAME (+L-NAME; 1 mM). Values are means ± SE. *P < 0.05 vs. vehicle; #P < 0.05 vs. cells treated with Ang-(1–7) alone.
