Renal vasoconstriction by the endothelial cell-derived peptide endothelin in spontaneously hypertensive rats.

abstract：RATIONALE:MicroRNA (miR)-1 and -133 play a crucial role in skeletal and cardiac muscle biology and pathophysiology. However, their expression and regulation in vascular cell physiology and disease is currently unknown.
