FGF7 and Hypertension: The following genes showed similar expression patterns in both models: Pah, Fgf7, Sptssb, Nd6, Axdnd1. Here, Pah4,34 and Fgf733 have been previously implicated in hypertension, therefore further analysis of Sptssb, Nd6, and Axdnd1 may help elucidate whether these genes contribute to development of hypertension.
