Implication

Supports renin as sustained driver in chronic experimental hypertension; leaves open translation to human therapy.

Structured PICO

Does administration of hog renin or homologous antirenin reduce blood pressure in dogs with long-term experimental renal hypertension?

P
Population
Dogs with experimental renal hypertension of 4 or more years duration
I
Intervention
Intramuscular injections of semipurified hog renin from cortex, or passive immunization with homologous antirenin to hog renin
O
Outcome
Reduction in blood pressuresurrogate

Renin remains the principal pathogenetic factor in experimental renal hypertension even after many years of duration in dogs.
