Figure 5Comparison of renal SNA, at baseline and in response to leptin, between
Bbs2–/–,
Bbs4–/–, and
Bbs6–/– mice and wild-type littermate controls.
(
A) Segments of original records of renal SNA at baseline and 4 hours after leptin (5 μg, i.c.v.). (
B) Comparison of baseline renal SNA between wild-type and BBS mice (
n = 13–37 mice per group). (
C) Average renal SNA response 4 hours after leptin administration expressed as a function of time (
n = 10–16 mice per group). (
D) Average renal SNA response 4 hours after leptin administration expressed as the percentage change from baseline. Data are mean ± SEM. *
P < 0.05 compared with wild-type controls.
