Spatial Memory in Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats (SHR)
The spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR) is an established animal model of ADHD. It has been suggested that ADHD symptoms arise from deficits in executive functions such as working memory, attentional control and decision making. Both ADHD patients and SHRs show deficits in spatial working memory. However, the data on spatial working memory deficits in SHRs are not consistent. It has been sugge...
متن کاملThe effect of wild blueberry (Vaccinium angustifolium) consumption on postprandial serum antioxidant status in human subjects.
The aim of the present study was to determine whether the consumption of wild blueberries (Vaccinium angustifolium), a concentrated source of non-nutritive antioxidant phytochemicals, would enhance postprandial serum antioxidant status in healthy human subjects. A single-blinded crossover study was performed in a group of eight middle-aged male subjects (38-54 years). Subjects consumed a high-f...
متن کاملThe effects of supraphysiological supplementation of β-carotene in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR and SHR-sp).
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of administration of supraphysiological β carotene on biological, laboratory and histological parameters of spontaneously hypertensive rats prone to stroke (SHR-sp). METHODS we used 36 male rats divided into three groups, each containing 12 rats of the types Wistar SHR and SHR-sp, subdivided into six control animals and six animals treated with supraphysiol...
متن کاملDietary calcium alters blood pressure reactivity in spontaneously hypertensive rats.
Plasma catecholamines and blood pressure reactivity were investigated in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats maintained on three levels of dietary calcium: low (0.1%), intermediate (1.0%), or high (2.0%). In the SHR, restricted dietary calcium resulted in elevations of mean arterial pressure that were most pronounced during handling and restraint stress (p less tha...
متن کاملImpaired regulation of renal oxygen consumption in spontaneously hypertensive rats.
Abnormalities of nitric oxide (NO) and oxygen radical synthesis and of oxygen consumption have been described in the spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR) and may contribute to the pathogenesis of hypertension. NO plays a role in the regulation of renal oxygen consumption in normal kidney, so the response of renal cortical oxygen consumption to stimulators of NO production before and after the a...
