Abstract excerpt
The aim of this study was to evaluate whether thromboxane A2-prostaglandin H2 (TP) receptor activation potentiates the renal vasoconstrictor effect of Angiotensin II (Ang II) in genetically hypertensive rats of the Lyon strain (LH). Concentration-response curves (CRCs) to Ang II (5 pM to 10 nM), to the specific TP receptor agonist U46619 (7.5-960 nM) and to a mixture of Ang II + U46619 (fixed molar ratio of 1 :...
