May implicate ANF receptor changes in renal sodium handling in renovascular hypertension; leaves open translation to human disease.
In a rat model of 2-K, 1C hypertension, plasma ANF is elevated and renal glomerular ANF receptor density changes dynamically, suggesting a role in differential sodium handling.
Gauquelin et al. (1988) studied this question.
