Figure 2. Effect of candesartan and captopril in the lung of rats with metabolic syndrome and aged rats.

Figure 2

Effects of candesartan (A and C) and captopril (B) on mRNA expression of ACE2 and AT1, AT2 and Mas receptors in the lung of rats with metabolic syndrome (A and B) and aged rats (C). Rats treated with candesartan (A) or captopril (B) were compared with the same group of untreated animals in (A) and (B). Data are mean ± SEMs. *P<0.05 relative to control adult rats; #P<0.05 relative to untreated rats with metabolic syndrome (A and B) or aged rats (C) (one-way ANOVA with Student–Newman–Keuls method post hoc test or Kruskal–Wallis one-way analysis of variance on ranks with Student–Newman–Keuls method post hoc test).
