| Abstract: | The rate of proton gradient-induced Na+/H+ exchange in the erythrocytes of SHR was increased by 50-60% as compared to WKY animals. No significant correlation between Na+/H+ exchange and blood pressure was revealed in F2 hybrids of SHR and WKY rats. Na+/H+ exchange rate in the erythrocytes of F2 SHR x WKY hybrids was twice as high as in SHR and three times higher than in WKY rats. |
