Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether mutations in the C-terminus of the three subunits of the rat epithelial sodium channel (alphabetagamma-rENaC) contribute to the hypertensive phenotype in five rat models for essential hypertension. DESIGN: We sequenced the C-terminal regions of alpha-, beta- and gamma-rENaC genes in five different hypertensive rat strains [spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR), Dahl...
