Levels of BP, HR, and RSNA in the anesthetized WKY and SHR rats 4 wk after ACE2 overexpression in the RVLM
WKY | SHR | |||
---|---|---|---|---|
Lenti‐GFP | Lenti‐ACE2 | Lenti‐GFP | Lenti‐ACE2 | |
MAP (mm Hg) | 120±1.27 | 112±4.07 | 170±6.04* | 152±3.45# |
HR (bpm) | 345±22.0 | 349±14.0 | 397±12.6* | 352±12.3# |
RSNA (% of Max) | 15.9±1.49 | 13.2±2.00 | 38.3±1.33* | 24.1±1.53# |
Values are expressed as mean±SEM, n=5/group,*P<.05 vs WKY+Lenti‐GFP; #P<.05 vs SHR+Lenti‐GFP.
