Cytosolic Ca2+ regulation attenuates ANP-induced cGMP response in vascular smooth muscle cells of the SHR.

abstract：:In many reports, the prevalence of target organ damage in renovascular hypertension (RVH) appears to be higher than in essential hypertension (EH). Since in most studies the renal artery stenosis is part of a diffuse atherosclerotic disease, it is not known whether these complications are due to RVH itself or to the v...
