Effects of renal denervation on myocardial expression of hypertrophy-related genes ANP and β-MHC mRNAs: Results of qPCR analyses. Data were presented as mean ± SEM, and n=6–8 in each group. *P<0.05 as compared with NC group, #P<0.05 as compared with sham group. NC, negative controls; RD, renal denervation; SEM, standard error of mean; ANP, A type natriuretic peptide; β-MHC, myosin heavy chain β; qPCR, quantitative polymerase chain reaction.
