Fructose feeding induces hypertension, insulin-resistance and hypertriglyceridemia in Sprague-Dawley rats. The mechanisms of fructose-induced hypertension are as yet unknown. Here we investigate the effects of fructose feeding and of varying salt intake on blood pressure, glucose tolerance, plasma renin activity, and tissue angiotensinogen, renin, and AT1 receptor mRNA levels in this model of hypertension.
