摘要: Rats were exposed continuously to Pb in utero and after birth by giving their mothers, during pregnancy lactation, drinking water containing 0, 100, or 500 ppm (as acetate) then continuing this regimen weaning. Male rats receiving 100 developed a significant elevation of systolic blood pressure (152 +/- 3.7 mm Hg vs. 135 5.6 for controls) at 3 1/2 months remained hypertensive until sacrifice 6 months; normotensive. Both females At plasma renin activity (PRA) was significantly reduced the male group but normal group. There dose-dependent decreases All/PRA ratio renal renin.
