Effects of NAC on renal DDAH activity, superoxide production, and GSH/GSSG ratio. (a) Renal DDAH activity detected by a colorimetric assay; (b) superoxide production in the kidney detected by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR); (c) renal GSH/GSSG ratio; 𝑁=5 per group. ^∗𝑃<0.05 SHR versus WKY; ^#𝑃<0.05 SHR + NAC versus SHR.
