| الوصف: | Background Many clinical trials on antihypertensive drugs have confirmed the usefulness of these drugs in regulating blood pressure effectively. However, all the drugs usually require long-term use; thus, economic burdens as well as some adverse effects, including headache, diarrhea, skin rash, edema, fever, and liver and kidney dysfunction, accompany their use. Therefore, we attempted to identify natural medications for treating hypertension. We investigated the antihypertensive effects of Dendropanax morbiferus H. Lév. extract ( DP ), enzymatically hydrolyzed DP extract (Hy- DP ) and 5% unripe Rubus coreanus Miq. ethanol extract (5- u RCK). Methods Extracts of the unripe R. coreanus were made using 20 volumes of 5% ethanol at 100 °C for 4 h. The dried leaves of D. morbiferus were subjected to enzymatic hydrolysis by protease, trypsin, bromelain and papain to increase L -arginine and GABA levels. Vasorelaxant effects of these extracts were evaluated on rat aorta precontracted with phenylephrine. In addition, hippocampal neurons, RAW 264.7 macrophages and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were used to exam nitric oxide (NO) production and NO synthase (NOS) gene expression. Results DP , Hy- DP and 5- u RCK dose-dependently relaxed isolated rat aortic rings contracted with phenylephrine; however, Hy- DP was more effective than DP . L -NAME and ODQ differentially inhibited Hy- DP - and 5- u RCK-induced relaxation; both L -NAME and ODQ completely blocked 5- u RCK-mediated relaxation. Endothelium-denuded aortic ring relaxation was induced much less by 5- u RCK than by Hy- DP . Therefore, 5- u RCK and Hy- DP induced vascular relaxation by endothelium-dependent and partially endothelium-dependent mechanisms, respectively. Hy- DP and 5- u RCK induced eNOS gene expression and NO production in endothelial cells but did not change iNOS/nNOS expression or NO production in macrophages or neuronal cells. Both Hy- DP and 5- u RCK effectively induced vascular relaxation via similar but slightly different ... |
