Summary
The purpose of this study is to investigate the role of ET-1 in mediating vasoconstrictor
tone in hypertensive postmenopausal women (PMW) alone and in combination with a commonly
prescribed Angiotensin II (ANG II) antagonist. The long term goal is to understand the
mechanisms contributing to hypertension (HTN) in PMW. This study is the first step in
reaching our goal.
