Abstract excerpt
The present investigation examines the association of angiotesin I converting enzyme (ACE) genotypes with blood pressure and heart weight in an F2 population of rats derived from a cross between spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats. ACE genotype of rats in the F2 popu...
