Hyperhomocysteinemia decreases bone blood flow
Elevated plasma levels of homocysteine (Hcy), known as hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy), are associated with osteoporosis. A decrease in bone blood flow is a potential cause of compromised bone mechanical properties. Therefore, we hypothesized that HHcy decreases bone blood flow and biomechanical properties. To test this hypothesis, male Sprague-Dawley rats were treated with Hcy (0.67 g/L) in drinki...
متن کاملMelatonin decreases homocysteine level in blood of rats.
Elevated plasma homocysteine level promotes atherosclerosis in blood vessels due to, among others, generation of reactive oxygen species and reduction of nitric oxide bioavailability. The aim of this study was to investigate whether melatonin administration reduces plasma homocysteine level in rats consuming increased doses of methionine in the diet. The trial lasted for two months. The rats we...
متن کاملCopper deficiency decreases plasma homocysteine in rats.
The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of copper deficiency on key aspects of homocysteine metabolism that involve methionine recycling and transsulfuration. Male weanling Sprague-Dawley rats were fed AIN-93G-based diets containing <1 or approximately 6 mg Cu/kg. After 6 wk (Expt. 1) and 4 wk (Expt. 2) we found that plasma homocysteine was significantly decreased, and plasma glu...
متن کاملHigh casein diet decreases plasma homocysteine concentration in rats.
Experiments were conducted to clarify the relationship between dietary protein level and plasma homocysteine concentration in rats. Male Wistar rats were fed diets differing in casein level from 5 to 50% for 14 d (Expt. 1). Plasma total homocysteine concentration was positively correlated with dietary casein level in the range of 5 to 10% but inversely correlated with dietary casein level in th...
متن کاملThe addition of nitrous oxide to halothane decreases renal and splanchnic flow and increases cerebral blood flow in rats.
Thirteen male Sprague-Dawley rats were anaesthetized with halothane and catheters were placed in the femoral artery and left ventricle. The animals breathed spontaneously through a tracheostomy throughout the investigation. After the surgical preparation, the inspired halothane concentration was maintained at 1.5 vol% (F/O2 = 0.3). After a 30-min stabilization period, strontium-85 radiolabelled...
