Figure 4From: Expression profiles of carnosine synthesis–related genes in mice after ingestion of carnosine or β-alanineEffect of dietary carnosine and β-alanine on the CN1 mRNA expression in the kidneys of male mice; 2 g/kg body weight of carnosine, β-alanine, or water was orally administered to mice (n = 6–8). Values are means ± SD. Significant differences after administration were analyzed by using Student’s t-test (**P < 0.01).Back to article page
