Abstract
Antihypertensive treatments were given to young and adult SHRs, to prevent and reverse hypertension, respectively. Cardiac hypertrophy and the steady state level of the "fetal" genes, ANP, alpha-skeletal actin (alpha-skA), and beta myosin heavy chain (beta-MHC) mRNAs were assessed. Our findings show that the reduction of blood pressure does not consistently result in a similar regression of the "fetal gene program".
