Nitrite contents in aortic rings of SR (white bars), NefR (black bars), and NefR-T (gray bars) with (first group of bars: unrubbed) or without functional endothelium (second group of bars: rubbed) at 15 min in the experiment. ***𝑃<0.001 NefR and NefR-T versus SR; ⁺⁺⁺𝑃<0.001 NefR-T versus NefR; ^†††𝑃<0.001 rubbed versus unrubbed rings. Two way ANOVA. Data are expressed as mean ± standard error. The number of rings is given in parentheses.
