Effect of AVP on Slc16a1, Slc16a4, and Bdnf gene expression in astrocytes from WKY/Izm, SHRSP/Izm, and SHRpch1_18 rats. Confluent astrocytes isolated from SHRSP/Izm, SHRpch1_18 rats, and WKY/Izm were exposed to 10, 50, or 100 nM AVP for 8 h, after which total cellular RNA was used for RT-PCR analysis. Comparison of a Slc16a1, b Slc16a4, and c Bdnf gene expression in astrocytes from all assayed rat strains. Gene expression levels were normalized to 18S ribosomal RNA. WKY WKY/Izm, SHRSP SHRSP/Izm, SHRpch SHRpch1_18. Columns show means ± SE (n = 4). *P < 0.05
