Sequential activation of the reactive oxygen species/angiotensinogen/renin-angiotensin system axis in renal injury of type 2 diabetic rats.

abstract：:1. It has been suggested that oestrogen-produced vasodilatation is due to induction of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (NOS), but there are many reports of direct effects on vascular smooth muscle. In the present study, these processes were investigated in rat aorta isolated from ovariectomized rats. 2. Short-term t...
