Purinergic endothelium-dependent and -independent contractions in rat aorta.
The role of endothelium-derived contracting factor or factors in modulating relaxations and contractions to adenine nucleotides was examined in aortas from spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) and Wistar rats. During contractions to phenylephrine, the relaxations to ATP were impaired significantly in SHR compared with WKY aortas with endothelium. In rings tr...
متن کاملSaffron Induced Relaxation in Isolated Rat Aorta via Endothelium Dependent and Independent Mechanisms
Crocus sativus L. (saffron) is a widely used food additive for its color and taste. The hypotensive effects of saffron have been shown in previous studies. The aim of this study was to evaluate the mechanism of vasodilatory effects induced by saffron on isolated rat aorta.To study the vasodilatory effects of saffron aqueous extract (0.5, 1 and 2 mg/mL), isolated rat thoracic aorta rings were co...

متن کاملAge and hypertension promote endothelium-dependent contractions to acetylcholine in the aorta of the rat.
This study was undertaken to compare age-related changes in endothelium-dependent vascular responses in both hypertensive and normotensive rats. Aorta from normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats and spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) aged 4-6 weeks (young), 3-6 months (adult), and 12-25 months (old) were examined for relaxation to acetylcholine, adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP), and sodium nitr...
متن کاملFormononetin, an isoflavone, relaxes rat isolated aorta through endothelium-dependent and endothelium-independent pathways.
We evaluated the vasorelaxation effects of formononetin, an isoflavone/phytoestrogen found abundantly in Astragalus mongholicus Bunge, on rat isolated aorta and the underlying mechanisms involved. Cumulative administration of formononetin, genistein, daidzein and biochanin A relaxed phenylephrine-preconstricted aorta. Formononetin and biochanin A caused a similar magnitude of relaxation whereas...
