Background: Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is characterized by hypertension and renal vasoconstriction. Mediators of these hemodynamic changes are not well understood, but evidence suggests that endothelial-derived mediators may participate.
Methods: Baseline measurements of blood pressure, proteinuria, and urinary nitrite/nitrate excretion were performed in control and cystic male Han:SPRD rats (6 weeks of age).
