Figure 5

Gene expression of the three candidate genes in SHRSPrch1.31. Kidneys were collected from the three rat strains at 12–14 weeks of age without salt-loading. Total RNA was extracted and quantitative RT-PCR was performed as previously described (ref.28, see also Methods in the main text). Pr1.31; SHRSPrch1.31, *P < 0.05 vs. SHR, **P < 0.05 vs. SHRSP by Student’s t-test. Five rats were used for each strain.
