renal/urinary system
• cortical blood flow is lower than in wild-type mice
• at high renal perfusion pressure, renal blood flow is lower than in similarly treated wild-type mice
• as renal perfusion pressure increases, mice fail to exhibit an increase in medullary blood flow unlike in similarly treated wild-type mice
• however, glomerular filtration rate is normal
|
• renal vascular resistance is higher than in wild-type mice
|
• at 113 or 118 mm Hg equivalent renal perfusion pressure, diuresis and natriuresis are 3 times lower than in wild-type mice
• as renal perfusion pressure increases, fractional sodium and water excretion curves are shifted rightward compared to in wild-type mice
|
• at 113 or 118 mm Hg equivalent renal perfusion pressure, natriuresis is 3 times lower than in wild-type mice

homeostasis/metabolism
