  1. Systolic blood pressure (SBP, mmHg) was assessed via the tail-cuff method. Mice were implanted with osmotic minipumps containing Ang II 1000 ng/kg/min or 0.9% NaCl (referred as control). Hydralazine (Hyd, 150 mg/L) was administered in the drinking water and started 3 days before minipump implantation. Data is expressed as mean ± SEM, n = 11–20/group; two-way ANOVA with Tukey post-test. Main effect of time F(2,191) = 11.58, p < 0.0001; main effect of treatment F(3, 191) = 49.42, p < 0.0001; interaction F(6, 191) = 8.772, p < 0.0001
  2. §p < 0.0001 Ang II day 4 and day 7 versus day 0 and versus control; p < 0.0001 Ang II + Hyd versus Ang II on day 4 and day 7
