2. Figure 1
Effects of high levels of amino acids (HA) and glucose (HG) on aminopeptidase A (APA) mRNA expression. Confluent MC were serum deprived for 48 hours then subjected to HA or HG conditions for 48 hours. Total RNA was isolated and mRNA was assessed by RT-PCR. The mRNA values are expressed in arbitrary units relative to βbgr;-actin for each sample. Bars indicate mean ± SEM, *P < 0.05, N = 8.

Effects of high levels of amino acids (HA) and glucose (HG) on angiotensin type 1 receptor (AT1R) mRNA expression. Confluent MC were serum deprived for 48 hours then subjected to HA or HG conditions for 48 hours. Total RNA was isolated and mRNA was assessed by RT-PCR. The mRNA values are expressed in arbitrary units relative to βbgr;-actin for each sample. Bars indicate mean ± SEM, *P < 0.05, N = 8.

Effects of high levels of amino acids (HA) and glucose (HG) on angiotensin type 2 receptor (AT2R) mRNA expression. Confluent MC were serum deprived for 48 hours then subjected to HA or HG conditions for 48 hours. Total RNA was isolated and mRNA was assessed by RT-PCR. The mRNA values are expressed in arbitrary units relative to βbgr;-actin for each sample. Bars indicate mean ± SEM, *P < 0.05, N = 6.
