Group | M/C | S/M |
ET-1 | 1.31±0.03* | 1.00±0.05 |
ET-2 | 1.30±0.02* | 0.73±0.02† |
ETR-A | 1.14±0.04 | 0.78±0.03† |
ETR-B | 0.67±0.02* | 0.94±0.01 |
ET, endothelin; M, monocrotaline; C, control; S, simvastatin; ETR, endothelin receptor.
*P<0.05 vs. the corresponding value in the C group.
†P<0.05 vs. the corresponding value in the M group.
