Effect of renal denervation on blood pressure in rats exposed to prenatal dexamethasone. Rats whose mothers were treated with prenatal dexamethasone (0.2 mg/kg body wt) daily on days 15–18 of gestation or vehicle underwent either a sham operation or renal denervation at 6 wk of age and blood pressure was measured at 8 wk. Prenatal dexamethasone caused an increase in blood pressure that was prevented by renal denervation. [From Dagan et al. (36).]
