Research Abstract |
Angiotensin II was infused systemically into human liver type fatty acid binding protein(L-FABP) chromosomal transgenic (Tg) and wild type (WT) mice for 4 weeks. Although blood pressure levels in both groups increased to a similar extent, expressions of inflammatory cytokines and collagen type I or III were significantly attenuated in the Tg mice compared to the WT mice. The expression of L-FABP increased in the Tg mice by Ang II infusion and the accumulation of peroxidative products was significantly inhibited in the Tg mice than in the WT mice. From these results, renal L-FABP attenuated the hypertensive renal injury independent on blood pressure.
