Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of portal hypertension (PH) on the activity of local renin angiotensin system(LRAS). Method The expression of local renin and local angiotensinogen mRNA in liver,splenic artery and vein of PH patients was detected with RT-PCR. Result Expression of local renin mRNA in the liver in control group was 0.19?0.12, significantly lower than that of splenic artery (0.45?0.12) and splenic vein (0.39?0.12) respectively(P
