AT(1) receptor inhibition does not reduce arterial wall hypertrophy or PDGF-A expression in renal hypertension

To separate the role of ANG II from pressure in hypertrophy of the vascular wall in one-kidney, one-clip (1K1C) hypertension, experimental and sham-operated rats were given the AT(1)-receptor antagonist losartan (20 mg x kg(-1) x day(-1)) or tap water for 14 days. Mean arterial pressure was elevated...
