hemodynamics
We       found that 1) cardiac hemodynamics, function, and histology were the same in       sham-ligated BN and BNK rats; 2) IS was similar in BN and BNK; 3) in rats with HF       treated with vehicle, the decrease in LVEF and the increase in LVEDV, LVESV,       LVEDP, ICF, MCA, and ODD did not differ between BNK and BN; and 4) ACEI increased       EF, decreased LVEDV and LVESV, and improved cardiac remodeling in BN-HF rats, and       these effects were partially blocked by the bradykinin B(2) receptor antagonist       icatibant (HOE-140).
