Antihypertensive Effect of y-Linolenic Acid in Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats
The effects of chronic treatments of adult (aged 16-17 weeks) spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs) with different doses of y-linolenic acid (GLA) on blood pressure, heart rate, and body weight were studied. Twice-daily injection of SHRs with GLA lowered systolic blood pressure from 175±4 to 145±4 mm Hg within 1 week; systolic blood pressure in all three treated groups became stabilized in the...
متن کاملAntihypertensive Effect of Syzygium cumini in Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats
This study evaluated the in vivo potential antihypertensive effect of hydroalcoholic extract of Syzygium cumini leaves (HESC) in normotensive Wistar rats and in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR), as well as its in vitro effect on the vascular reactivity of resistance arteries. The hypotensive effect caused by intravenous infusion of HESC (0.01-4.0 mg/kg) in anesthetized Wistar rats was dose...
متن کاملAntihypertensive effect of alcohol in spontaneously hypertensive rats.
The influence of ethanol (alcohol) consumption on blood pressure during and after the development of hypertension was examined by using spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and stroke-prone SHR (SHRSP). Normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats were also used for comparison. Substituting alcohol (5-20%) for drinking water at 1 month of age retarded the age-dependent rise of blood pressure in all th...
متن کاملAntihypertensive effect of Lepechinia caulescens extract on spontaneously hypertensive rats
The aim of the present study was to examine the antihypertensive effect of methanolic extract from Lepechinia caulescens (MELc) and to determine the thoracic aorta reactivity after long-term treatment with MELc. Results showed that MELc at 38 and 120 mg/Kg induced a significant decrease of heart rate (HR), systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) in comparison with contr...
متن کاملAntihypertensive action of amiodarone in spontaneously hypertensive rats.
The antihypertensive effect of amiodarone was investigated in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and normotensive Wistar-Kyoto rats (WKY). The SHR and WKY were treated with amiodarone (1 mg/mL PO) or tap water (control) for 20 weeks. The indirect arterial pressure (AP) was monitored weekly using the tail-cuff method. At the end of the 20th week, the direct AP was measured, and the systolic A...
