Figure 7From: Expression of neutral endopeptidase activity during clinical and experimental acute lung injury Relative mRNA expression of NEP in lung tissue. Relative gene expression patterns of NEP in whole lung tissue, 24 h after the instillation of LPS versus saline (Control), analyzed by quantitative RT-PCR. The results are expressed as relative amounts normalized for 18 S rRNA. n = 4 or 5 mice in each group. *p < 0.05.Back to article page
