Why the study?
Does treatment with low-sodium diet plus furosemide, captopril, or propranolol affect kidney renin gene expression differently in spontaneously hypertensive rats compared to normotensive controls?
Does treatment with low-sodium diet plus furosemide, captopril, or propranolol affect kidney renin gene expression differently in spontaneously hypertensive rats compared to normotensive controls?
Spontaneously hypertensive rats show an enhanced expression of the renin gene in the kidney compared with normotensive controls in response to stimuli that increase renin release.
