Review of the cardiovascular adversity of the calcium antagonist beta-blocker combination: implications for antihypertensive therapy.

abstract：:We established a real-time quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) system for the analysis of rat endothelin-1 (ET-1) and vasoactive intestinal contractor (VIC)/ET-2 gene expression. We used this technique to examine the expression levels in rat in 16 different organs. ET-1 gene expressio...
