Hypertension is the most common risk factor for hemorrhagic stroke. An experimental model of stroke, the stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHRSP), which has been enormously useful in studies of cerebral circulation, has been used in >1000 papers. However, SHRSP usually have an ischemic or less commonly hemorrhagic stroke in the cortex, not in the brain stem, cerebellum, or basal ganglia, as in patients with hypertension. The goal of this study was to develop a model of hemorrhagic stroke in hypertensive mice.
