Popis: Abstract To assess whether the cardiovascular effects induced by early blockade of bradykinin B 2 -receptors with Hoe 140 ( d -Arg[Hyp 3 ,Thi 5 , d -Tic 7 ,Oic 8 ]-bradykinin) are influenced by sex, Wistar rats of both sexes received the antagonist (300 nmol/d per kilogram body wt) or vehicle from 2 days to 7 weeks of age by subcutaneous injection and then by intraperitoneal infusion. Compared with control rats, Hoe 140–treated female rats showed higher systolic blood pressure levels at 7 and 9 weeks of age (125±2 versus 111±2 mm Hg and 132±3 versus 116±2 mm Hg, respectively, P P P P P P
