Endothelial function improved by Rhy is Src- and Akt-dependent in SHR renal arteries. (A) Effects of 12 h-incubation with Rhy (30, 100, or 300 μM) or vehicle on Akt phosphorylation in the arteries from SHRs (n = 4). (B) Effects of wortmannin (a PI3K inhibitor, 10 μM) on the Rhy-improved relaxation (n = 6). (C) Effects of wortmannin (a PI3K inhibitor, 10 μM) on the Rhy-increased eNOS phosphorylation in SHR renal arteries (n = 4). (D) Effects of incubation with Rhy (30, 100, or 300 μM) or vehicle for 12 h on Src phosphorylation in the arteries from SHRs (n = 4). (E) Effects of PP2 (a Src inhibitor, 10 μM) on the Rhy-improved endothelium-dependent relaxation in SHR renal arteries (n = 6). (F) Effects of PP2 (a Src inhibitor, 10 μM) on the Rhy-increased eNOS phosphorylation in SHR renal arteries (n = 4). *p < 0.05 vs. vehicle; #p < 0.05 vs. Rhy.
