It is shown that in thermoneutral conditions ISIAH (Inherited Stress-Induced Arterial Hypertension) hypertensive rats had a lower level of high-density lipoproteins (HDLP) in plasma and a higher atherogenic coefficient compared to normotensive Wistar rats. After cooling there were different changes in fractional composition of plasma lipoproteins both in normo- and hypertensive rats. These changes depended on the cooling rate and were more pronounced after slow cooling. Slow cooling resulted in a more significant increase of plasma HDLP and in a greater decrease in LDLP and atherogenic coefficient in hypertensive rats compared to normotensive ones.

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is one of the primary causes of mortality and disability, with arterial blood pressure being an important factor in the clinical management of TBI. Spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs), widely used as a model of essential hypertension and vascular dementia, demonstrate dysfunction of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, which may contribute to glucocorticoid-mediated hippocampal damage. The aim of this study was to assess acute post-TBI seizures, delayed mortality, and hippocampal pathology in SHRs and normotensive Sprague Dawley rats (SDRs).

Heart failure (HF) is a complex syndrome marked by considerable expenditures and elevated mortality and morbidity rates globally. Shenmai injection (SMI), a form of Traditional Chinese Medicine-based therapy, has demonstrated effectiveness in treating HF. Recent research suggests that Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) may induce beneficial changes in microbial-host co-metabolism, potentially providing cardiovascular protection.

Programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) and its ligand PD-L1 have been detected at the materno-embryonic interface in both human and murine pregnancy models. However, research regarding the PD-1/PD-L1 signal in preeclampsia (PE) is limited. In the present investigation, 30 normal pregnant females and 30 PE patients were enrolled.

Background: Hypertension, which affects 1.28 billion people globally aged 30 to 79, is characterized by continuously high blood pressure (140/90 or more) and raises the risk of premature death. Losartan, an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB), is suggested for patients under the age of 55 who cannot take ACE inhibitors as a first treatment option.

Valsartan (VST) is an angiotensin II receptor antagonist with low oral bioavailability. The present study developed a solid self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery system (S-SNEDDS) to enhance the oral absorption and bioavailability of VST. VST-loaded liquid SNEDDS (VST@L-SNEDDS) was prepared by investigating the solubility of VST and constructing the pseudo-ternary phase diagrams.
