Abstract
Our findings suggest that young normotensive subjects with parental history of arterial hypertension are characterized by an inadequate suppression of aldosterone production in response to salt loading and an exaggerated and prolonged hyper-responsiveness of aldosterone secretion in response to Ang II. This might contribute to the increased risk for the development of essential hypertension in subjects with positive family history of arterial hypertension.
