Northern-blot analysis of mRNA expression of total RNA of proteins involved in ECM formation and degradation and the matrix itself obtained from 5 day–obstructed and sham-operated kidneys of B2+/+ and B2–/– mice. (a) Representative autoradiograms. (b) Adjacent histograms are the mean densitometric values (± SD) after analysis of the Northern blots and normalization with GAPDH; n = 10.*P < 0.05 compared with respective sham-operated mice. ‡P < 0.05 compared with B2+/+ UUO mice.
