Figure 6

Expression of genes implicated in the leptin signaling. Relative gene expressions of the leptin (A), the leptin receptor (B) and the suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 (SOCS3; C) in thoracic aorta and pulmonary artery from control Witar rats and spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). Results are expressed as means ± SEM. $ 0.01 < p < 0.05 compared to the corresponding artery from the control group; 0.01 < p < 0.05, ♯♯ 0.001 < p < 0.01, ♯♯♯ p < 0.001 compared to the thoracic artery in the same strain of rats.
