Abstract excerpt
Previous studies have demonstrated an elevated Na(+)-H+ exchanger activity in various cell types from patients with essential hypertension. The phenotype of an increased maximal transport capacity is preserved in Epstein-Barr virus immortalized lymphoblasts from hypertensive patients. The mechani...
