abstract：BACKGROUND:We have recently shown that the renin enhancer, a regulatory element of renin gene transcription, is important in the long-term control of basal blood pressure (BP). In this study, we examined whether the renin enhancer deficit alters the acute pressor response to emotional stress in mice. METHODS:Under flu...
