Abstract excerpt
The HXB/Ipcv and BXH/Cub sets of recombinant inbred (RI) strains were derived from the spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR/OlaIpcv) and normotensive Brown Norway (BN-Lx/Cub) rats. The RI strains were produced as a model system for genetic and correlation analysis of spontaneous hypertension and other risk factors of cardiovascular disease such as insulin resistance and dyslipidemia. The RI strains were...
