Differential regulation of interleukin-6 production in the kidney by the renal sympathetic nerves in normal and spontaneously hypertensive rats.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) and atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis (ARAS) are the most common causes of renovascular hypertension. So far, FMD is believed to cause hypertension via similar mechanisms as in ARAS, that is, a decrease in renal blood flow, which subsequently leads to increased renin secreti...

abstract：OBJECTIVE:In essential hypertensive patients, blunted renal plasma flow responsiveness to angiotensin II suggests a pathologic increase in angiotensin II in the kidneys. This blunting has been associated with the angiotensinogen 235TT genotype. As several measures of renal function decline with age, we sought to determ...
