Figure 6Amount of Kir3.1 and Kir3.4 mRNA changes during embryonic development in atria. (
A) Quantitative RT-PCR (Taqman) performed on early- (E11.5) and late-stage (E18.5) embryonic atria. mRNA levels in the different samples were normalized to 18S rRNA. Data are obtained from 3 independent RNA preparations. (
B) Ratio of Kir3.4/Kir3.1 mRNA in early- and late-stage atria as determined from the data in
A. Data are mean ± SD (
P = 0.003, unpaired Student’s
t test). Asterisk denotes statistically significant difference.
