Impact of VMN nNOS Gene Silencing on Eu- and Hypoglycemic Patterns of Steroidogenic Factor-1 (SF-1)/Nr5a1 mRNA Expression in VMN Division-Based GABA Neuron Subpopulations. Plots depict normalized Nr5a1/SF-1 [Fig. 4A (VMNdm) and 4B (VMNvl)] mRNA measures for GABA neurons collected from SCR siRNA/sc V (blue box-and-whisker plots, n = 12), nNOS siRNA/sc V (yellow box-and-whisker plots; n = 12), SCR siRNA/ sc INS (green box-and-whisker plots; n = 12), or nNOS siRNA/sc INS (orange box-and-whisker plots; n = 12) treatment groups. Statistical differences between discrete pairs of treatment groups are indicated by the following symbols: *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01; ***p < 0.001
