title: Change in cortical active kallikrein during the onset of Goldblatt hypertension in the rat.
abstract: In two-kidney, one clip hypertensive rats renal cortical kallikrein was studied one and two weeks following induction of the hypertension in comparison with sham time controls. Cortical active kallikrein was lower in hypertensive rats only at week 2, although blood pressure was significantly higher one week after clipping. Total cortical kallikrein was however never different in sham control and in hypertensive rats. This results provide evidence for a change in the activation of prekallikrein during the onset of Goldblatt hypertension.
