Abstract excerpt
Mice provide a unique platform to dissect disease pathogenesis, with the availability of recombinant inbred strains and diverse genetically modified strains. Leveraging these reagents to elucidate the mechanisms of hypertensive tissue injury has been hindered by difficulty establishing persistent hypertension in these inbred lines. ANG II infusion provides relatively short-term activation of the...
