title: [Effect of chronic bradykinin infusion on angiotensin II hypertension in rats].
abstract: In previous studies, we demonstrated that in ANG II-treated rats, prevention of cardiac hypertrophy (CH) by enalapril was blunted by bradykinin (BK) blockade by Hoe140. The putative role of BK was assessed by chronic exogenous BK infusion and in 46 male Sprague-Dawley rats infused with ANG II. ANG II (200 ng/kg/min) alone and associated with BK at low (BKlow, 15 ng/kg/day), mid (BKmid, 100 ng/kg/day) and high doses (BKhigh, 100 ng/kg/min) were delivered by Alzet osmotic pumps for 10 days and compared to control animals (Veh). Values of systolic arterial pressure (SAP, mmHg) in conscious rats and heart weight (HW, mg/g bw) at the end of the study are reported below. Results were submitted to ANOVA and are expressed as mean +/- SEM.
