- Abstract
Background: Enhancing relaxation of resistance arteries and decreasing oxidative stress by using natural products are potential strategies for prevention and treatment of hypertension.Purpose: This study investigated whether aqueous extract of Moringa oleifera leaves (MOE) could alleviate Nω-nitro-L-arginine-methyl ester (L-NAME)-induced high blood pressure via modulation of vascular function and antioxidant properties.Methods: An experimental hypertensive model was established by administration of L-NAME (50 mg/kg/day) in drinking water to male Wistar rats for 3 weeks. Arterial pressure was measured indirectly by tail-cuff plethysmography and directly via femoral artery catheterization. Vasoreactivity of isolated rat mesenteric arterial bed was determined by the changes in perfusion pressure detected by a pressure transducer. Vascular superoxide anion (O2•-) production was determined by lucigenin-enhanced chemiluminescence. Other biochemical measurements including malondialdehyde (MDA) level, superoxide dismutase (SOD), and catalase (CAT) activities were measured by colorimetric assay.Results: L-NAME-treated rats developed significantly increased blood pressure and heart rate. Concurrent oral treatment with MOE (30 and 60 mg/kg/day) could decrease the high blood pressure and tachycardia in a dose-dependent manner. MOE reduced the impairment of acetylcholine-induced relaxation and decreased the hyperreactivity of adrenergic-mediated contraction in response to periarterial nerve stimulation and phenylephrine in isolated mesenteric arterial beds. In addition, MOE exhibited antioxidant effects in the hypertensive rats, as indicated by suppression of vascular O2•- production, decrease of plasma and thoracic aorta MDA levels, and increase of antioxidant activities of SOD and CAT. Moreover, MOE (0.001-0.3 mg) produced a dose-dependent relaxation in methoxamine pre-contracted arterial beds isolated from L-NAME hypertensive rats, which was abolished by endothelium denudation.Conclusion: These findings suggest that the antihypertensive effect of MOE in L-NAME-hypertensive rats may be mediated by alleviating vascular dysfunction and oxidative stress and promoting endothelium-dependent vasorelaxation. MOE may be potentially useful as a natural product against hypertension. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

N ω -Nitro- l -arginine methyl ester ( l -NAME)-induced hypertension and cardiovascular remodeling are associated with oxidative stress and inflammation. Garcinia mangostana Linn., has been reported to have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. This study investigated whether G. mangostana pericarp extract (GME) could prevent l -NAME-induced hemodynamic alterations, cardiovascular remodeling, oxidative stress and inflammation in rats. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were given 40 mg/kg/day of l -NAME in drinking water to induce hypertension, and were simultaneously treated with GME at a dose of 200 mg/kg/day. Rats that received l -NAME for five weeks had high blood pressure, left ventricular hypertrophy and thickening of aortic wall. Vascular superoxide production, plasma malondialdehyde (MDA), and plasma tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) were significantly increased in l -NAME-hypertensive rats ( p < 0.05). This was consistent with up-regulation of the p47 phox NADPH oxidase subunit and iNOS protein expression in aortic tissues ( p < 0.05). Low levels of plasma nitric oxide metabolites were observed in l -NAME hypertension. GME prevented the development of hypertension and cardiovascular remodeling induced by l -NAME with reduced oxidative stress and inflammation. These data suggest that GME had a protective effect against l -NAME-induced hypertension and cardiovascular remodeling via suppressing p47 phox NADPH oxidase subunit and iNOS protein expression resulting in enhancing NO bioavailability.

Mali-Nil Surin rice bran hydrolysate (MRH) contains highly nutritional proteins and beneficial phenolic compounds. This study investigated an antihypertensive effect of MRH and evaluated the mechanisms mediating this action in N ω -nitro- L -arginine-methyl ester (L -NAME)-induced hypertensive rats. Antihypertensive activity was determined in male rats orally administered with MRH (100 or 300 mg/kg) or enalapril (15 mg/kg) daily together with L -NAME (50 mg/kg/day) in drinking water, for 21 days. Concurrent oral treatment with MRH lowered the high blood pressure in the L -NAME-induced hypertensive rats. MRH treatment improved endothelial function and increased the endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor-mediated vasorelaxation in L -NAME hypertensive rats. L -NAME rats treated with MRH had reduced adrenergic hypercontractility, which was associated with a decrease in L -type calcium channel-mediated vasoconstriction. In addition, MRH exhibited antioxidant activity in hypertensive rats, as indicated by suppression of vascular superoxide anion production and reduction of malondialdehyde levels, as well as magnification of superoxide dismutase and catalase activities in serum. This study demonstrated the nutraceutical potential of MRH to prevent oxidative stress-related vascular dysfunction in hypertension. [Display omitted] • Continuous oral treatment of L -NAME hypertensive rats with Mali-Nil Surin rice bran hydrolysate (MRH) lowers high blood pressure by decreasing oxidative stress, endothelial dysfunction, and adrenergic hypercontractility. • MRH treatment decreases oxidative stress through suppression of vascular ROS production and lipid peroxidation as well as enhancement of antioxidant enzyme activity. • MRH alleviates endothelial dysfunction most probably through a decreased impairment of EDHF-mediated endothelium-dependent vasorelaxation. • MRH alleviates adrenergic hypercontractility which is partially dependent on reduction of the increased L -type Ca2+ channels-mediated response.

Abstract: Free radical-induced vascular dysfunction plays a key role in the pathogenesis of vascular disease found in chronic diabetic patients. Morus alba (MA) leaf extract is promoted for good health especially in diabetic patients. Interestingly, antidiabetic and antioxidant activities of MA have been reported in experimental animals. Thus, the hypothesis of this study was that the long-term treatment with MA could improve vascular reactivity of chronic diabetic rats. To test this hypothesis, we examined the effect of long-term treatment with MA on the vascular responses to vasoactive agents in streptozotocin-induced chronic diabetic rats. The diabetic rats were either orally administered with distilled water, MA (0.25, 0.5 and 1 g/kg per day) or subcutaneously injected with insulin (4 U/kg per day) for 8 weeks. After each treatment, the fasting blood glucose, blood pressure, vascular responses to vasoactive agents and tissue malondialdehyde were examined. Morus alba at the doses of 0.5 and 1 g/kg, which significantly reduced blood glucose level, also significantly decreased the high blood pressure in diabetic rats. Vascular responses of the chronic diabetic rats to vasodilators, acetylcholine (3-30 nmol/kg) and sodium nitroprusside (1-10 nmol/kg) were significantly suppressed by 26% to 44% and 45% to 77% respectively, whereas those to vasoconstrictor, phenylephrine (0.01-0.1 μmol/kg) were significantly increased by 23% to 38% as compared to normal rats. Interestingly, the administration of 0.5 and 1 g/kg MA or 4 U/kg insulin significantly restored the vascular reactivities of diabetic rats. Moreover, 8 weeks of diabetes resulted in the elevation of malondialdehyde content in tissues (liver, kidney, heart, and aorta), and MA treatment significantly lessened this increase. These results provide the first evidence for the efficacy of MA in restoring the vascular reactivity of diabetic rats, the mechanism of which may associate with the alleviation of oxidative stress.

Vernonia cinerea (V cinerea) is a plant distributed in grassy areas in Southeast Asia and has several pharmacological effects, including antidiabetic activity. However, the information available regarding the effect of V cinerea on insulin resistance in high-fat diet (HFD)–induced obese mice is not yet determined. We hypothesized that V cinerea water extract (VC) improves insulin sensitivity in HFD-induced obese mice by modulating both phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K) and adenosine monophosphate–activated protein kinase (AMPK) pathways in liver, skeletal muscle, and adipose tissue. Obesity was induced in mice from the Institute for Cancer Research by feeding an HFD 188.28 kJ (45 kcal % lard fat) for 12 weeks. During the last 6 weeks of the HFD, obese mice were treated with VC (250 and 500 mg/kg). We found that VC at both doses significantly reduced the hyperglycemia, hyperinsulinemia, hyperleptinemia, and hyperlipidemia. Obese mice treated with VC could increase serum adiponectin but reduce the proinflammatory cytokines, tumor necrosis factor– α , and monocyte chemoattractant protein–1. The extracts decreased triglyceride storage in liver and skeletal muscle of obese mice. The average size of fat cells was smaller in VC-treated groups than that of the HFD group. The protein expressions of PI3K and AMPK pathways in liver, skeletal muscle, and adipose tissue were upregulated (increased phosphorylation of PI3K, protein kinase B, AMPK, and acetyl-CoA carboxylase) by VC treatment. Furthermore, the glucose transporter 4 was increased in muscle and adipose tissue in obese mice treated with VC. These data indicate that VC treatment stimulates phosphorylation of PI3K and AMPK pathways in liver, muscle, and adipose tissue. Stimulating these pathways may improve impaired glucose and lipid homeostasis in an HFD-induced obesity mouse model. Based on these findings, it appears that VC has potential as a functional food or therapeutic agent in management of insulin resistance related diseases, such as type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Abstract: We have previously shown that mulberry leaf extract (MA) causes blood glucose levels to decrease in rats with streptozotocin-induced diabetes while enhancing glucose uptake by isolated fat cells. We hypothesized that the antidiabetic activity of MA is mediated via enhancement of adiponectin secretion and adipogenesis, which consequently decreases blood glucose. In the present study, we aimed to elucidate the molecular basis for the observed antidiabetic activity using murine 3T3-L1 preadipocyte cultures. We found that treatment of differentiating 3T3-L1 cells with MA at concentrations of 5, 15, and 45 μg/mL increased expression of adiponectin messenger RNA from 1.4-fold (control) to 1.5-, 1.95-, and 2.2-fold above basal values, respectively, while causing adiponectin secretion to increase from 70 ± 7.4 ng/mL to 100 ± 1.4, 138 ± 2.0, and 176 ± 21.4 ng/mL, respectively. Furthermore, we observed an increase in both lipid accumulation and messenger RNA expression of transcription factors, such as CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein α and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ; and of the fatty acid–binding protein aP2 in differentiated 3T3-L1 cells pretreated with MA. Our findings indicate that the stimulatory effects of mulberry leaf extract on adipocyte proliferation and differentiation likely occur through up-regulation of adipogenic transcription factors and downstream gene expression. Such effects of mulberry leaf extract on adiponectin secretion and adipocyte activity may account for, at least in part, the antidiabetic effects of consumption of beverages containing mulberry leaves.

• Blood pressure-lowering effect of MOE is associated with the relaxation of the small resistance artery. • The blood pressure-lowering and vasorelaxing effects induced by MOE, are partially dependent on the (eNOS) function. • MOE induces the endothelium-dependent relaxation through the eNOS/sGC pathway. • MOE increases NO production in human pulmonary artery endothelial cells. • The vascular effect of MOE is also unrelated to prostacyclin synthesis. A mass of evidence has identified a promoting of nitric oxide (NO) production in endothelial cells using natural products as a potential strategy to prevent and treat hypertension. This study investigated whether the aqueous extract of Moringa oleifera leaves (MOE) could lower mean arterial pressure (MAP) and relax mesenteric arterial beds in rats via stimulating endothelium-derived NO production. Intravenous administration of MOE (1–30 mg/kg) caused a dose-dependent reduction in MAP in anesthetized rats. In rats pretreated with the NO-synthase inhibitor, Nω-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME, 30 mg/kg, i.v.), the effect of MOE on MAP was significantly reduced. MOE (0.001–3 mg) induced relaxation in methoxamine (10 μM) pre-contracted mesenteric arterial beds, which was abolished by endothelium denudation. This endothelium-dependent vasorelaxation was reduced by L-NAME (100 μM) or the NO-sensitive guanylyl cyclase inhibitor, 1 H - [ 1 , 2 , 4 ]-oxadiazolo-[4,3- a ]-quinoxalin-1-one (10 μM). In primary human pulmonary artery endothelial cells, MOE (3–30 μg/mL) induced NO production, which was inhibited by L-NAME (100 μM) pretreatment. These findings show that MOE stimulates the endothelium-derived NO release for driving its vasorelaxation to lower arterial blood pressure. These suggest the development of MOE as a natural antihypertensive supplement. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract: Oxidative stress is a major contributor to the development of vascular dysfunction found in various pathological conditions. Quercetin, one of the potent antioxidant bioflavonoid compounds, has been shown to alleviate oxidative injury by modulation of gene expression leading to suppression of production of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species and conferring an antiapoptotic activity. The aim of the present study was to investigate the protective effects of quercetin in a model of phenylhydrazine (PHZ)-induced oxidant stress, vascular dysfunction and hemodynamic disturbance in rats. Male Sprague–Dawley rats were administered quercetin orally (25 or 50mg/kg/day) for 6 days. On day four, all animals except those in the normal control group, were administered PHZ intraperitoneally. The results showed that PHZ induced severe hemolysis. The mean arterial pressure and hindlimb vascular resistance of PHZ-control rats were markedly decreased compared to normal controls. Treatment with quercetin significantly improved arterial blood pressure and peripheral vascular resistance. Vascular responsiveness to bradykinin, acetylcholine, and phenylephrine in PHZ-control rats was dramatically suppressed and quercetin restored these responses in a dose-dependent manner. Quercetin partially protected blood glutathione, suppressed plasma malondialdehyde levels, and largely suppressed nitric oxide metabolites and superoxide anion production. These results provide the first evidence for the role of the flavonoid, quercetin, in the alleviation of vascular dysfunction in an animal model of PHZ-induced oxidant stress.
