From: Smoking accelerates renal cystic disease and worsens cardiac phenotype in Pkd1-deficient mice
(a) Analysis of the effects of smoking and Pkd1 deficiency in the renal glutathione (GSH) levels on NC (n = 8), NCS (n = 5), CY (n = 8) and CYS (n = 10) mice. (b) Analysis of the effects of smoking and Pkd1 deficiency in the renal thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) levels on NC (n = 8), NCS (n = 5), CY (n = 7) and CYS (n = 9) animals. (c) Analyses of the effects of smoking and Pkd1 deficiency in Il1b expression in renal tissue on NC (n = 5), NCS (n = 4), CY (n = 6) and CYS (n = 7) mice; and (d) in tgfb1 expression in renal tissue on NC (n = 5), NCS (n = 3), CY (n = 6) and CYS (n = 7) animals. The data were analyzed by aligned rank transform followed by two-way analysis of variance (a,c,d) and by two-way analysis of variance (b).
