Abstract excerpt
1. We determined whether early inhibition of angiotensin II subtype1 (AT1) receptors by the newly synthesized nonpeptidic antagonist, A-81988, can attenuate the development of hypertension in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and if the altered blood pressure phenotype can be passed on to the...
