Wistar rats received either vehicle (control), Ang II (400 ng/kg/min), or telmisartan (3 mg/kg/day)+Ang II (400 ng/kg/min) via mini-osmotic pumps for 14/28 days. Endogenous creatinine clearance rate (Ccr) and concentration of Ang II in plasma or renal tissue were measured on days 14 and 28.
p<0.05 compared with control group of respective duration.
