The effects of high calcium intake on the activity of thyroid gland in rats
The effects of goitrogens on the thyroid gland have been much studied and calcium is considered as a goitrogen in some cases. Since the level of calcium is high in drinking water of some cities of Khozestan province, the effects of high calcium intake on the function of thyroid gland is investigated in this study. For this purpose the concentration of thyroid hormones is measured in rats. The s...

We have investigated whether differences seen in the pharmacological and morphological properties of mesenteric resistance vessels from spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) controls are also present in vessels from young SHR and WKY rats in which there is little difference in blood pressure (BP). Segments of small arteries (lumen diameter 150 ̂ m) were taken ...

The endothelium-dependent vascular relaxation to acetylcholine (ACh) in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) may be impaired because of an imbalance of endothelium-derived relaxing factor and contracting factor. However, the role of the endothelium-dependent hyperpolarization remains undetermined. We examined the ACh-induced hyperpolarization and its contribution to relaxation in arteries of S...

Previous studies demonstrate that bilateral renal denervation enhances urinary sodium excretion and delays the onset of hypertension in young (7-week-old) spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) maintained on ordinary laboratory chow. We interpret these data as suggesting that increased renal nerve activity in this model contributes to hypertension by causing excess sodium retention. More recent ...
متن کاملPlatelet survival studies in stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRSP).
Platelet survival was studied by using 51Cr-labeled platelets in stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRSP), stroke-resistant SHR (SHRSR) and normotensive control rats of the Wistar-Kyoto (WK) strain. Relatively young animals of the same age prior to the development of cerebrovascular lesions (cerebral infarction and/or hemorrhage) were used. Platelet half-life time in SHRSP was sligh...
