Abstract
Transcriptional activity of the kidney genes was compared in hypertensive ISIAH and normotensive WAG rats using the oligonucleotide microarray technique. Most of differentially expressed genes were downregulated in ISIAH kidney both in renal cortex and medulla. According to functional annotation the kidney function in ISIAH rats is based on altered expression of many genes working in stress-related mode. The alterations in gene expression are likely related to both pathophysiological and compensatory mechanisms. The further studies of genes differentially expressed in ISIAH and WAG kidney will help to reveal new hypertensive genes and mechanisms specific for stress-induced arterial hypertension.
