Elevated blood pressure is the leading metabolic risk factor in attributable deaths, and hydrogen sulfide (HS) regulates vascular tone and blood pressure. Thus, this study aims to evaluate the mechanism by which NaHS (HS donor) produces inhibition of the vasopressor sympathetic outflow in obese rats. For that purpose, animals were fed a high-fat diet (HFD) (60% calories from fat) for 12 weeks.

Martius ex Spreng is a palm tree that is widely distributed in the Central-West region of Brazil. In this study, we investigated whether the oil-loaded nanocapsules of (APON) have acute and long-lasting antihypertensive effects in male spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR), as well as explored the underlying molecular mechanisms. APON was prepared using the interfacial polymer deposition method.

3-demethyl-2-geranyl-4-prenylbellidifoline (DGP), a natural xanthone isolated from , has previously demonstrated remarkable diuretic and renal protective actions. The present study expands its actions on the cardiovascular system by evaluating its vasorelaxant and blood pressure-lowering effects in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs). Aortic endothelium-intact (E+) preparations of SHRs pre-contracted by phenylephrine and exposed to cumulative concentrations of extract, fractions, and DGP exhibited a significant relaxation compared to vehicle-only exposed rings.

This study aimed to investigate the absorption of alkaloids from Phellodendri chinensis Cortex (PC) by human renal tubular epithelial cells (HK-2). Cellular uptake and affinity ultrafiltration assays were employed to determine the alkaloid uptake pathway in HK-2 cells. Stemming from the hypothesis that salt-water processed PC introduces these alkaloids into the kidney at a cellular level, this research focused on different processed products of PC that are tailored for renal targeting.
