Long-term comparison of losartan and enalapril on kidney function in hypertensive type 2 diabetics with early nephropathy.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Tubular transepithelial reabsorption of chloride along the nephron is a major determinant of body salt and water homeostasis and blood pressure regulation. About 40% of the glomerulary filtered sodium chloride are reabsorbed in the distal nephrons. Vectorial transepithelial sodium chloride transport is criti...
