1 Effects of losartan and captopril on endothelin-1 production in blood vessels and glomeruli of rats with reduced renal mass. Losartan endothelin 1 Rattus norvegicus
2 Treatment of uremic rats with losartan or captopril reduced irET-1 concentration in the thoracic aorta and preglomerular arteries (P < .05), but ir-ET-1 concentration in the mesenteric arterial bed was unchanged. Losartan endothelin 1 Rattus norvegicus
3 Although both drugs completely prevented the increase in proteinuria, losartan but not captopril significantly reduced ir-ET-1 concentration in glomeruli (P < .05) and normalized urinary ir-ET-1 excretion. Losartan endothelin 1 Rattus norvegicus
4 Although both drugs completely prevented the increase in proteinuria, losartan but not captopril significantly reduced ir-ET-1 concentration in glomeruli (P < .05) and normalized urinary ir-ET-1 excretion. Losartan endothelin 1 Rattus norvegicus
5 The beneficial effects of the AT1 antagonist losartan could be attributable to the attenuation of Ang II-induced ET-1 production in this rat remnant kidney model of chronic renal failure, whereas those of the ACE-I captopril are not related to changes in ET-1 production in glomeruli. Losartan endothelin 1 Rattus norvegicus
