Top; whole-cell patch-clamp recording of membrane hyperpolarization and decrease in the firing rate of an RVLM bulbospinal neuron during candesartan (0.12 mmol l−1) superfusion in an SHR preparation. Bottom; average changes in membrane potential of RVLM bulbospinal neurons. The changes in membrane potential during candesartan superfusion were significant when compared with the values obtained before superfusion in SHR, but not in WKY rats.23 A full color version of this figure is available at the Hypertension Research journal online.
