Abstract excerpt
Understanding the mechanisms that underlie BP (blood pressure) variation in humans and animal models may provide important clues for reducing the burden of uncontrolled hypertension in industrialized societies. High BP is often associated with increased signalling via G-protein-coupled receptors. Three members of the RGS (regulator of G-protein signalling) superfamily RGS2, RGS4 and RGS5 have been implicated in...
