Effect of centrally acting α2 adrenergic receptor agonist, clonidine, on blood pressure and natriuresis
Effect of centrally acting α2 adrenergic receptor agonist, clonidine, on SBP (A), diastolic blood pressure (B), urine volume (C), and urine sodium (D) in adult rat prenatal cold-exposed and control offspring at 12 weeks of age. Clonidine (0.2 mg/kg) was administrated into the stomach with a gastric tube twice daily for 1 week from 11 to 12 weeks of age. The blood pressure, urine volume, and urine sodium were measured after the last gavage. (*P<0.05 vs others, #P<0.05 vs control group without treatment, n=5/group).
