Application

Application Comment Organism
medicine salt sensitivity in the salt-sensitive rat is associated with upregulations of the intrarenal angiotensin system, reactive oxygen species-generating and proinflammatory/profibrotic proteins and an inability to raise antioxidant enzymes and maximally suppress plasma renin activity in response to high salt intake Rattus norvegicus

kidney salt-sensitive rats consuming a low-salt diet exhibit significant increases in AT 1 receptor, cyclooxygenase-2, plasminogen activator inhibitor PAI and phospho-I kappaB in the kidney as compared to those found in salt-resistant rats. The high-salt diet results in severe hypertension and proteinuria in salt-sensitive but not salt-resistant rats, and marked elevations of renal tissue monocyte chemoattractant protein 1, p22phox, NADPH oxidase subunit 4, angiotensin-II-positive cell count, infiltrating T cells and macrophages and further increases in AT 1 receptor, cyclooxygenase-2, PAI-1 and phospho-IkappaB in the salt-sensitive group Rattus norvegicus
