Heme oxygenase inhibition increases blood pressure in pregnant rats.
BACKGROUND During normal gestation, the placenta is a relatively hypoxic organ and, as such, is subject to significant oxidative stress. In the preeclamptic patient, inadequate remodeling of the maternal vasculature severely exacerbates placental oxidative stress, which has been shown to be an important component of maternal hypertension. There is emerging evidence that Heme Oxygenase-1 (HO-1) ...
متن کاملSelective cyclo-oxygenase-2 inhibition with celecoxib elevates blood pressure and promotes leukocyte adherence.
1. Selective inhibitors of cyclo-oxygenase-2 have been shown to be effective anti-inflammatory drugs with reduced gastrointestinal toxicity relative to conventional nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). In the present study, we examined the possibility that selective COX-2 inhibition, by blocking prostacyclin synthesis, would increase blood pressure and cause leukocyte adherence and pl...
متن کاملInhibition of natriuretic factors increases blood pressure in rats.
Renal dopamine and nitric oxide contribute to natriuresis during high-salt intake which maintains sodium and blood pressure homeostasis. We wanted to determine whether concurrent inhibition of these natriuretic factors increases blood pressure during high-sodium intake. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into the following groups: 1) vehicle (V)-tap water, 2) NaCl-1% NaCl drinking water, 3) ...
متن کاملSelective inhibition of the renal angiotensin type 2 receptor increases blood pressure in conscious rats.
The angiotensin II type 2 (AT(2)) receptor is present in rat kidney; however, its function is not well understood. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the role of the AT(2) receptor in blood pressure (BP) regulation. The effects of selective inhibition of the renal AT(2) receptor with phosphorothioated antisense oligodeoxynucleotide (AS-ODN) were examined in conscious uninephrectomized ra...
متن کاملRenal Inhibition of Heme Oxygenase-1 Increases Blood Pressure in Angiotensin II-Dependent Hypertension
The goal of this study was to test the hypothesis that renal medullary heme oxygenase (HO) acts as a buffer against Ang-II dependent hypertension. To test this hypothesis, renal medullary HO activity was blocked using QC-13, an imidazole-dioxolane HO-1 inhibitor, or SnMP, a classical porphyrin based HO inhibitor. HO inhibitors were infused via IRMI catheters throughout the study starting 3 days...
