Název v původním jazyce

Despite Similar Reduction of Blood Pressure and Renal ANG II and ET-1 Levels Aliskiren but not Losartan Normalizes Albuminuria in Hypertensive Ren-2 Rats

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The relationship between angiotensin II (ANG II) and endothelin-1 (ET-1) is known to be complex; both peptides can initiate and potentiate the gene expression of each other. This pilot study investigated the effects of the AT(1) receptor blocker losartanor the direct renin inhibitor aliskiren on mean arterial pressure (MAP) and albuminuria and the renal ANG II and ET-1 levels. 3-month-old male Ren-2 transgenic rats (TGR) were treated either with losartan (5 mg kg(-1) day(-1)) or aliskiren (10 mg kg(-1)day(-1)) for 10 weeks. At the end of the experiment, rats were decapitated and cortical and papillary parts of kidneys were separated. Plasma and tissue ANG II levels were measured by RIA and tissue ET-1 concentrations by ELISA. In all four groups of animals ET-1 levels were lowest in renal cortex and more than 100-fold higher in the papilla. Cortical and papillary ET-1 concentrations in untreated TGR significantly exceeded those of control HanSD rats and were significantly depressed by
