Figure 3

The expression of pendrin and ENaC is increased in the kidney of WNK1+/FHHT:SPAK243A/243A mice. Upper panel: Representative immunoblots performed with antibodies against the γ subunit of the epithelial channel ENaC and pendrin on the membrane-enriched fractions of the renal cortex of mice of each genotype. FL: Full-length and CL: cleaved form of γENaC, respectively. Lower panel: Densitometric analysis. The abundance and cleavage of γ-ENaC are increased in WNK1+/FHHT:SPAK243A/243A mice and SPAK243A/243A mice. The expression of pendrin increases significantly in WNK1+/FHHT:SPAK243A/243A mice. Number of animals: 4 control, 5 WNK1+/FHHt, 4 WNK1+/FHHt:SPAK243A:243A and 4 SPAK243A:243A male mice. Values are means ± s.e.m. ap < 0.05 vs. controls. bp < 0.05 vs. WNK1+/FHHt miceFHHt (Kruskal-Wallis one-way analysis of variance followed by Mann-Whitney test). Immunoblot images are cropped images. The full-length images can be found in Supplementary Figure S4.
