Isolation and purification of a vascular hyperreactivity factor from rabbit kidney cortex

Abstract

dc:description

Altered vascular response to agonist has been a consistently observed phenomenon in experimental animal and human hypertension. Much evidence suggests that a circulating factor of renal origin is, in part, responsible for this vascular hyperreactivity. The focus of this study was to isolate, purify and identify a vascular hyperreactivity factor (VHRF) from rabbit kidney cortex. Further studies were performed to define the mechanism of action of the VHRF in muscle.
