From the results, CD4+IL-17A+ (Th17) cells isolated from SS rats maintained on 20% fructose solution induced hypertension in recipient SS but not SR rats (Fig. 6B), whereas CD4+IL-17A+ (Th17) cells isolated from SS rats maintained on tap water did not affect blood pressure in either recipient group (Fig. 6C). The gene discussed is IL17A; the disease is hypertensive disorder.
