Effects of PDTC on AVP-induced iNOS and MCT4 protein expression in astrocytes isolated from SHRSP/Izm rats. Astrocytes isolated from SHRSP/Izm rats were exposed to 0 or 100 nM AVP for 24 h, after which iNOS (a) and MCT4 (b) proteins were assessed by WB analysis. In addition, astrocytes isolated from SHRSP/Izm rats were treated with or without AVP (100 nM) or AVP plus PDCT. Astrocytes were exposed to PDCT (30 μM) for 60 min before addition of AVP. Total protein (30 μg) was analyzed by Western blot with an anti-iNOS antibody or an anti-MCT4 antibody. AVP arginine vasopressin. Columns show means ± SE (n = 4). *P < 0.05
