Protective effects of long-term administration of Ziziphus jujuba fruit extract on cardiovascular responses in L-NAME hypertensive rats
Objective: Ziziphus jujuba stimulates the release of nitric oxide (NO). Because NO is involved in cardiovascular regulations, in this study the effects of hydroalcoholic extract of Z. jujuba on cardiovascular responses in acute NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) hypertensive rats were evaluated. Materials and Methods: Rats were divided into 6 group (n=6): 1) saline, 2) L-NAME received (...
متن کاملCardiac aldosterone production in genetically hypertensive rats.
Aldosterone is synthesized in extra-adrenal tissues, both blood vessels and brain. We undertook the present study to determine whether the rat heart produces aldosterone and to investigate the effects of adrenalectomy, ACE inhibition, and angiotensin II on aldosterone synthesis in the heart. To clarify the pathophysiological role of cardiac aldosterone in the hypertensive heart, we compared the...
متن کاملCardiac parasympathetic hyperresponsiveness in spontaneously hypertensive rats.
The bradycardic response to baroreceptor stimulation is impaired in human and experimental hypertension. Because this bradycardia mainly depends on the vagus, this may reflect a reduced cardiac parasympathetic responsiveness, which would parallel the reduced cardiac adrenergic responsiveness observed in hypertension. To test this hypothesis, 12-week-old spontaneously hypertensive rats (n = 12) ...
متن کاملCardiac hypertrophy in spontaneously hypertensive rats.
The energy metabolism of cardiac hypertrophy in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) was studied chronologically by histochemical and in part chemical methods. The activities of various enzymes, such as glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), isocitrate dehydrogenase, succinate dehydrogenase, beta-hydroxybutylate dehydrogenase (beta-HBDH) and monoamine oxidase (...
متن کاملCardiac contractile reserve in spontaneously hypertensive rats.
1. In response to graded infusions of isoprenaline, adult spontaneously hypertensive rats (20-24 weeks old) showed diminished responses of left ventricular contractile indices, diminished chronotropic responses and impairment of left ventricular relaxation rate as compared with matched Kyoto-Wistar rats. 2. These findings suggest reduced capacity to increase contractility in response to stress.
