Quantitative real-time PCR analysis (2-∆∆Ct values) of ACE2, Mas1 and MME gene expression in basal (a-c) and labyrinth (d-f) zones. Open bars denote controls while solid bars are DEX-treated rats. Error bars represent the mean ± SEM (n = 6 per group). *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001 compared with 19 dg of same group. ##p < 0.01, ###p < 0.001 compared with untreated rats at the same gestational day
