Summary of integrated pressor response (area under the curve; AUC) to acute air jet stress (left panel) and integrated mean arterial pressure during the 20-minute post-stress period (right panel) in pre-hypertensive Dahl salt-sensitive rats. Animals were either untreated (week 1) or given the dual endothelin A/B receptor antagonist, A-182086 (30 mg/kg/day in the food; week 2) (n=4) for 3 days. AUC was calculated as the sum of the mean arterial pressure data points during or post-air jet stress minus the average MAP obtained over the 3 minutes before the start of air jet stress. *p<0.05
