(a). NPNT overexpression increases protein-normalized aldosterone production, compared to vector control (n=4).
(b). NPNT silencing decreases protein-normalized aldosterone production, compared to non-targeting control (n=4).
(c). ITGB1 silencing decreases protein-normalized aldosterone production, compared to non-targeting control (n=4).
Bars represent mean expression per group±s.e.m. Statistical analyses were conducted by Student's t-test. *P<0.05; **P<0.005; ***P<0.0005
