The present study investigated the hypotensive responses to intravenous (i.v.) treatment with the essential oil of Alpinia zerumbet (EOAZ) and its main constituent, terpinen-4-ol (Trp-4-ol), in the experimental model of deoxycorticosterone-acetate (DOCA)-salt hypertensive rat. In both DOCA-salt hypertensive and uninephrectomized

The aim of the present study was to compare glomerular permeability alterations associated with experimental hypertension models known to have different effects on the circulating renin-angiotensin system (RAS). Five groups, 10 animals each, were studied. One group served as a

1. Hypertension was induced in male Sprague-Dawley rats by left unilateral nephrectomy and deoxycorticosterone acetate--salt administration. After 5 weeks, arterial systolic blood pressure was significantly elevated in these animals (191.5 +/- 6.0 mmHg, mean +/- SD, n = 17) compared
Renal dysfunction is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with hypertension. In an attempt to understand the molecular mechanisms leading to renal dysfunction and in particular that of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and RasGTPase signaling, we

In order to investigate if endothelium-derived contracting factor (EDCF) is involved in the altered reactivity of microvessels of deoxycorticosterone acetate (DOCA)-salt hypertensive rats, mesenteric arterioles, either perfused in vitro or studied in vivo in situ, were used. The responses to
