Objective To study the change and role of apoptosis in hypertensive left ventricular remodeling. Methods Hearts from 16-week-old spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and age-matched normotensive Wistar-Kyoto rats(WKY) were investigated. Apoptosis in left ventricle sections was assessed by in situ end-labeling technique(TUNEL), the feature and type of cells undergoing apoptosis were identified uitrastructurally by transmission electron microscope (ECM). Additionally, localization of Fas protein-a mediator of apoptotic cell death was ex-
