N-Acetylcysteine Prevents Hypertension via Regulation of the ADMA-DDAH Pathway in Young Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats

<table>Effects of NAC on 8-OHdG immunostaining in SHR and control WKY rats. Light micrographs illustrating immunostaining for 8-OHdG in the kidney in control WKY (upper left panel), spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) (upper right panel), N-acetylcysteine-treated SHR (SHR + NAC) (lower left panel), and negative control (lower right panel) at 12 weeks of age. Data are representative of 6 independent rats per group with similar trends. Scale bar: 50 <i>μ</i>m.</table>
