Abstract

11beta-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase activity in the kidneys of NISAG rats (rat strain with hereditary stress-induced arterial hypertension) was 1.5-fold higher than in WAG rats. An inverse relationship was observed in the liver of these animals. After stress exposure 11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase activity remained unchanged in the kidneys of NISAG and WAG rats, but significantly increased in the liver of NISAG rats. Functional activity of 11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase probably reflects the hypertensive state of NISAG rats.
