Blood glucose (panel A), arterial blood pressure (panel B) and albuminuria (panel C) of diabetic and hypertensive rats. Blood glucose was measured 24 hours before termination of the experiment. Mean arterial blood pressure was determined in awake rats via indwelling catheters inserted into the femoral artery. For determination of albuminuria, urine was collected 24 hours before sacrifice. SD, normotensive normoglycemic control rats; TGR, transgenic hypertensive rats; STZ, streptozotocin treatment. * indicates p < 0.05 versus normotensive normoglycemic SD control rats.
