Expression of cardiac hypertrophy-related genes in UUO/CKD mice. The expressions of 4 major markers for cardiac hypertrophy, ANP, BNP, β-MHC, and α-SK-actin, were measured by qRT-PCR. There was significantly increased expression of ANP (A), BNP (B), β-MHC/α-MHC (C), and α-SK-actin (D) in mice with UUO-induced CKD compared to the controls. Expression levels of individual genes were normalized to the expression level of β-actin. *P < 0.05 vs. Control. Bar values represent means ± SEM (error bars). Statistical analyses were performed with t-tests. N = 7.
