MVM SNAT2 protein expression at GD 140. (A) Western blot analysis of SNAT2 (system A amino acid transporter isoforms) expression in MVM isolated from control (C) and MNR (M) baboons. (B) The histogram shows protein expression data of MVM SNAT2. An equal amount of protein loading was performed. After normalization of MVM SNAT2 expression to loading control (β-actin), the average density of the control sample band was designated an arbitrary value of 1. Values are represented as Medians ± IQR. * p < 0.05, Mann–Whitney test (n = 8/each group). KS normality test p-value: MVM SNAT2 (Control, p > 0.10; MNR, p > 0.10; passed normality).
