Mechanism of impaired afferent arteriole myogenic response in Dahl salt sensitive rats: role of 20-HETE.

In conclusion, Dahl SS have an impaired myogenic response and ATP-induced Af-Art constriction due to a decrease in Af-Art 20-HETE. The impaired myogenic responses may contribute to the nephrosclerosis that develops in Dahl SS. PMID: 24990891 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
