چکیده

Introduction During the natural process of aging there is a progressive modification, and ultimately a loss, of organ function. These changes are common to all species. In general, there is a correlation between the structural and functional alterations associated with aging. In mammals, degenerative processes such as arteriosclerosis, the development of senile plaques in the brain and the replacement of functional parenchyma by fibroconnective tissue in a variety of organs, are considered manifestations of aging [1] .

Essential hypertension is one of the risk factors of cardiovascular diseases. Hypertension etiology is not completely known, it seems that rennin-Angiotensin system has an important role in its etiology, Thus better recognition of this system and its activity changes or vascular reaction changes to different parts of this system during progressive hypertension can be more effective in better re...

Introduction & Objectives: Previous studies have revealed that induction of two kidney-one clip (2K1C) Goldblatt hypertension in rats eliminates hypertensive response after inactivating of the Central Nucleus of the Amygdala (CA). The present study investigated the possibility of alteration in local Renin Angiotensin System (RAS) activity in CA after hypertension induction and evaluation of car...

The Effects of Angiotensin II and Captopril on Expression of Morphine Withdrawal Signs in Rat

The mechanisms of drug dependence and rewarding properties of opiates are not exactly known and several neurotransmitters seem to be involved. It is possible that the rennin-angiotensin system could interact with the opioid system, since it has been shown that angiotensin II(Ang) and ACE inhibitors have analgesic, anticonvulsant and antidepression effects and in some cases they could antagonize...
