Sodium intake may modulate ARB sympathoinhibitory effects in rats; hypothesis-generating and should not change clinical practice.
Does sodium intake influence hemodynamic and neural responses to angiotensin receptor blockade in the rostral ventrolateral medulla of rats?
Physiological alterations in endogenous renin-angiotensin system activity via sodium intake influence hemodynamic and renal sympathoinhibitory responses to AT1 receptor blockade in the rostral ventrolateral medulla.
DiBona et al. (2001) studied this question.
