2 Figure 1 Representative Western blots (upper panel) and group data illustrating hepatic tissue acyl-CoA:cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT) protein abundance in the nephrotic (NS), Nagase hypoanalbuminemic (NAG) and normal control (NL) groups. N = 6 in each group. P < Kidney International  , DOI: ( /j x) Copyright © 2002 International Society of Nephrology Terms and Conditions

3 Figure 2 Representative Northern blots (upper panel) and group data (lower panel) depicting hepatic tissue ACAT and GAPDH mRNA abundance in the nephrotic (NS), Nagase hypoanalbuminemic (NAG) and normal control (NL) groups. N = 6 in each group. P < 0.01. Kidney International  , DOI: ( /j x) Copyright © 2002 International Society of Nephrology Terms and Conditions

5 Figure 4 Correlations between hepatic tissue ACAT protein abundance and serum cholesterol concentration (A), urinary protein excretion (B) and plasma albumin (C) in the normal control (NL; •), nephrotic syndrome (NS; ○) and Nagase hypoalbuminemic (NG; ▾) groups. In A, r = 0.95, P < 0.01; in B, r = 0.93, P < 0.01; in C, r = 0.06, P = NS. Kidney International  , DOI: ( /j x) Copyright © 2002 International Society of Nephrology Terms and Conditions
