Synergistic QTL interactions between Rf-1 and Rf-3 increase renal damage susceptibility in double congenic rats

The FHH (fawn-hooded hypertensive) rat is a model of hypertension-associated chronic kidney damage. Five interacting quantitative trait loci (QTLs), named Rf-1–Rf-5, determine the high renal susceptibility. The aim of the present study was to investigate a possible interaction between Rf-1 and Rf-3....
