Abstract
Angiotensin II type 1 receptor blockers (ARBs) are widely used in treating hypertension. In the present study, we tested the hypothesis that a novel ARB, azilsartan medoxomil (AZL-M) will prevent renal and cardiovascular injury in the spontaneously hypertensive obese rat (SHROB), a model of cardiometabolic syndrome. Male SHROB were treated with vehicle or AZL-M orally for 56 days. Vehicle treated normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats served as...
