abstract：PURPOSE:PET imaging has been recently introduced for investigating the type 1 angiotensin II receptor (AT(1)R) in vivo. The goal of the present study was to investigate the effects of acute and chronic exposure to angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEI) on the AT(1)R in the dog kidney. METHODS:Animals were ima...
