Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: We have recently isolated a gene, designated as the SA gene, which is more than 10 times more abundantly expressed in the kidneys of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) than in those of Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats. To address the issue whether the SA gene is one of the genes responsible for the hypertension of SHR, a genetic cosegregation analysis of the blood pressure values with the genotypes in an F2...
