Renal Inflammation in DOCA-Salt Hypertension: Role of Renal Nerves and Arterial Pressure

open access: yesHYPERTENSION, 2019
Recent reports indicate that, in addition to treating hypertension, renal denervation (RDN) also mitigates renal inflammation. However, because RDN decreases renal perfusion pressure, it is unclear whether these effects are because of the direct effects ...
