Vanadyl sulfate lowers plasma insulin and blood pressure in spontaneously hypertensive rats.
Spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) are hyperinsulinemic compared with their Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) controls. Since previous studies have demonstrated that vanadyl sulfate lowers insulin levels in nondiabetic rats, we used vanadyl to explore the relation between hyperinsulinemia and hypertension. In a prevention study, 5-week-old SHR and WKY rats were started on long-term vanadyl sulfate treatmen...
متن کاملConnexin 50 mutation lowers blood pressure in spontaneously hypertensive rat.
We assessed the effect of the previously uncovered gap junction protein alpha 8 (Gja8) mutation present in spontaneously hypertensive rat - dominant cataract (SHR-Dca) strain on blood pressure, metabolic profile, and heart and renal transcriptomes. Adult, standard chow-fed male rats of SHR and SHR-Dca strains were used. We found a significant, consistent 10-15 mmHg decrease in both systolic and...
متن کاملHuman heme oxygenase-1 gene transfer lowers blood pressure and promotes growth in spontaneously hypertensive rats.
Heme oxygenase (HO) catalyzes the conversion of heme to biliverdin, with release of free iron and carbon monoxide. Both heme and carbon monoxide have been implicated in the regulation of vascular tone. A retroviral vector containing human HO-1 cDNA (LSN-HHO-1) was constructed and subjected to purification and concentration of the viral particles to achieve 5x10(9) to 1x10(10) colony-forming uni...
متن کاملPerivascular radiofrequency renal denervation lowers blood pressure and ameliorates cardiorenal fibrosis in spontaneously hypertensive rats
BACKGROUND Catheter-based renal denervation (RDN) is a promising approach to treat hypertension, but innervation patterns limit the response to endovascular RDN and the post-procedural renal artery narrowing or stenosis questions the endovascular ablation strategy. This study was performed to investigate the anti-hypertensive and target organ protective effects of perivascular RDN in spontaneou...
متن کاملArgan (Argania spinosa) oil lowers blood pressure and improves endothelial dysfunction in spontaneously hypertensive rats.
Traditionally hand-pressed argan oil, obtained from Argania spinosa seeds, is eaten raw in south-west Morocco; its rich composition of tocopherols, MUFA and PUFA make a study of its actions on risk factors for CVD, such as hypertension, interesting. The effects of 7 weeks of treatment with argan oil (10 ml/kg) on the blood pressure and endothelial function of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SH...
