Role of Nox2 and p22phox in Persistent Postoperative Hypertension in Aldosterone-Producing Adenoma Patients after Adrenalectomy

Figure 3

Pathological and immunohistochemical analyses of p22phox in normal adrenocortical tissue, APA, and NFA. (a–i) p22phox presents a gradient of expression in the entire adrenal cortex (100x), and its localization was restricted to the cell membrane (400x). (j) Graphical illustration of the statistical distributions of p22phox in normal adrenocortical tissue, APA, and NFA. The p22phox IRS was higher in APA compared to that in normal adrenal tissue.
