Flax Lignan Concentrate Ameliorates Nω-Nitro-L-Arginine Methyl Ester (L-NAME)-Induced Hypertension: Role of Antioxidant, Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme and Nitric Oxide
Background: Recently the antihyperlipidemic, cardioprotective and in vitro antioxidant activity of Flax Lignan Concentrate (FLC) obtained from Linum usitatissimum Linn. (Linaceae) has been reported. The present study was aimed to assess the antihypertensive effect of FLC in L-NAME-induced hypertensive rats. Materials and Methods: Wistar rats (200-240 g) were given L-NAME (40 mg kgG1 b.wt. dayG1...
متن کاملHeme Oxygenase Improves Renal Function by Potentiating Podocyte-Associated Proteins in Nω-Nitro-l-Arginine-Methyl Ester (l-NAME)-Induced Hypertension.
BACKGROUND Although heme-oxygenase (HO) is cytoprotective, its effects on podocyte regulators like podocalyxin, podocin, CD2-associated protein (CD2AP) in renal dysfunction in N (ω)-nitro-l-arginine-methyl ester (l-NAME) hypertension are largely unclear. METHODS Hypertension was induced in normotensive Sprague Dawley rats by administering l-NAME for 4 weeks. Enzyme immunoassay, enzyme-linked ...
متن کاملEffects of NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester on renal function and blood pressure.
The dose-dependent effects of intravenous infusions of nitric oxide (NO) synthesis inhibitor, NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME; 0.1, 1, 10, and 50 micrograms.kg-1.min-1), were studied in anesthetized rats to determine whether the inhibitory actions of L-NAME are manifested primarily in alterations of renal function or whether they are the consequences of the increase in systemic blood p...
متن کاملEffect of inhaled NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester on Candida-induced acute lung injury.
STUDY OBJECTIVES Nitric oxide (NO) and peroxynitrite play a crucial role in acute lung injury (ALI). Whether NO synthase (NOS) inhibition is beneficial in the treatment of lung injury remains controversial. The objective of this study was to test the hypothesis that local inhibition of NOS in the lung reduces lung injury. DESIGN We developed a model of Candida-induced ALI in the mouse by IV i...
