Excessive leukotriene B4 in nucleus tractus solitarii is pro-hypertensive in spontaneously hypertensive rats.

ABSTRACT: We have used Affymetrix microarray-driven gene profiling to comprehensively describe the expression of mRNAs in the nucleus tractus solitarii (NTS) in the adult male spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR) as compared to its normotensive parental Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) strain. Keywords: Gene expression NTS was dissected from hypertensive (SHR) and normotensive (WKY) strains of rat. For each structure, 10 independent Affymetrix Genechip 230 2.0 experiments were performed (5 SHR, 5 WKY), with each chip representing an independent biological replication (n=5).
