Effects of chromium picolinate on vascular reactivity and cardiac ischemia-reperfusion injury in spontaneously hypertensive rats.
Chromium picolinate [Cr(pic)(3)] is a nutritional supplement widely promoted to exert beneficial metabolic effects in patients with type 2 diabetes/impaired glucose tolerance. Frequent comorbidities in these individuals include systemic hypertension, abnormal vascular function and ischemic heart disease, but information on the effects of the supplement on these aspects is sparse. Utilizing male...
متن کاملPreconditioning effects of steroids and hyperoxia on cardiac ischemia-reperfusion injury and vascular reactivity.
OBJECTIVE Corticosteroids and hyperoxia protect the heart against ischemia-reperfusion injury and may attenuate vascular reactivity. We hypothesized that (1) combining these two pretreatments induces an additive cardioprotection, (2) protection depends on activation of survival kinases and/or heat shock proteins, and (3) these interventions would change vascular reactivity into a more relaxed s...
متن کاملEffect of allopurinol on ischemia and reperfusion-induced cerebral injury in spontaneously hypertensive rats.
In spontaneously hypertensive rats, we studied the participation of xanthine oxidase-linked free radical in ischemia and reperfusion-induced cerebral injury, using allopurinol, a xanthine oxidase inhibitor. The loss of righting reflex was noted in some animals after a 4 hour occlusion of bilateral common carotid arteries and 19 of 25 animals died within 72 hours after reperfusion. One hour afte...
متن کاملRenoprotective effects of GABA on ischemia/reperfusion- induced renal injury in hyperglycemic male and female rats
Introduction: Acute kidney injury (AKI) has been known as a complex clinical complication in diabetic patients. The main cause of AKI is ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI). This study was designed to investigate the protective effects of GABA on renal IRI in hyperglycemic female and male rats. Methods: Sixty STZ induced diabetic male and female Wistar rats were categorized in 10 groups (5 fem...
متن کاملEffects of captopril and enalapril on regional vascular resistance and reactivity in spontaneously hypertensive rats.
The present study compares the effects of short-term treatments with captopril and enalapril, administered in equipotent antihypertensive doses, on the regional vascular resistances and on the regional vascular responsiveness to vasopressor agents of adult spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs). Three groups of animals were treated by gavage with captopril (100 mg/kg), enalapril (25 mg/kg), or ...
