Comparison of time-course changes in renal macrophage infiltration in wild-type Dahl salt-sensitive (SSWT) rats and obese Dahl salt-sensitive leptin receptor mutant (SSLepRmutant) rats. Numbers in parentheses indicate the number of rats studied per group. Values are means ± SE. The significance of difference in mean values for a single time point was determined by one-way ANOVA followed by a Tukey’s multiple-comparisons test. P values of <0.05 were considered significantly different. *Significant difference from the corresponding value within the same strain at baseline; †significant difference from the corresponding value in SSWT rats within the same weeks of age.
