Title: | Mineralocorticoid-receptor signalling in vascular smooth muscle |
Creators Name: | Wu, J. and Luft, F.C. |
Abstract: | Human data suggest that eplerenone and spironolactone lowers blood pressure by mechanisms independent of the distal tubule. Now, a novel inducible conditional knockout model of the mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) brings out understanding further. |
