Abstract excerpt
Recent studies indicate that the production of 20-HETE by a P4504A2 enzyme in the outer medulla of the kidney is reduced in Dahl salt-sensitive (SS/Jr) rats, but the contribution of this abnormality to the elevation in loop Cl- transport and development of hypertension in this model is unknown. THe present study found that alleles at the locus for the P4504A2 gene cosegregate with blood pressure in an F2...
