Time-Induced Progressive Alteration of Kir Current in Cerebral Smooth Muscle Cells of Stroke-Prone Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats

Figure 2

(a) Kir density measured at –135 mV on SMC originated from WKY (𝑛=11), SHR (𝑛=10), and SHRsp (𝑛=15) rats at different ages. (b) Histogram of Kir densities measured at –135 mV for WKY, SHR, and SHRsp for the period 12–22 weeks and the period 22–32 weeks. Values are mean ± sem, ***𝑃<0.000, **𝑃<0.005.
