abstract：:Hypertension induced in rats by suprarenal banding has a blood pressure elevating effect that is accompanied by the occurrence of cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis. This phenomenon is already present at 2 weeks after banding and persists up to 1.5 years. The increase in cardiac weight is mostly due to the development o...
