Table 1.

Basal values of systolic arterial pressure (SAP), diastolic arterial pressure (DAP), MAP, and HR in the control, 2K1C and 2K1C DAx obtained from conscious rats.

	Control (n = 5)	2K1C (n = 5)	2K1C DAx (n = 5)
SAP (mmHg)	129 ± 4	228 ± 10*	198 ± 6*+
DAP (mmHg)	91 ± 2	160 ± 8*	133 ± 3* +
MAP (mmHg)	104 ± 2	183 ± 8*	154 ± 4* +
HR (bpm)	379 ± 12	412 ± 9	378 ± 9

^*p < 0.05 in relation to the control group.

⁺p < 0.05 in relation to the 2K1C group (one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s post hoc test).
