The Role of Renal Medullary Bilirubin and Biliverdin Reductase in Angiotensin II-Dependent Hypertension
Altogether, these findings show that medullary bilirubin and biliverdin reductase can improve hypertension and that mechanisms that increase bilirubin and biliverdin reductase in the renal medulla could be an effective approach to treat hypertension.
