Why the study?
Does the superoxide dismutase mimetic Tempol reduce arterial pressure and renal damage in Dahl salt-sensitive rats?
Does the superoxide dismutase mimetic Tempol reduce arterial pressure and renal damage in Dahl salt-sensitive rats?
Tempol, a superoxide dismutase mimetic, attenuates hypertension and renal damage in Dahl salt-sensitive rats on a high-sodium diet, suggesting oxidative stress plays a key role in salt-sensitive hypertension.
