Research Abstract |
We hypothesized that decreased number or function of bone marrow(BM)-derived cells in the brain is related to neurogenic hypertension. Intracerebroventricular(icv) administration of DiI labeled BM-derived cells revealed that a long term attachment of DiI positive cell in the brain. Although icv administration of BM-derived cells did not alter blood pressure in hypertensive rats, higher expression of angiotensin converting enzyme 2(ACE2) and Mn-SOD of the BM-derived cells and its ability to attach in the brain suggest that BM-derived cells may serve as a mobile renin-angiotensin system modulator in the brain.
