Abstract:
To investigate the changes in nitric oxide (NO) and angiotensin (AⅡ) in rat with spontaneous hypertension (SHR) and the effect of benazepril on production of NO/AⅡ. The animals were divided into three groups: normotensive (WKY) group, SHR control group and benazepril group. Blood pressure was measured by the tail-cuff method. NO - 3 concentration in serum was assayed by activated cadmium reduction method; cGMP and AⅡ levels in vascular tissue were assayed by RIA (radioimmunoassay). The results showed that blood NO - 3 concentration and vascular cGMP level were all lower in SHR group compared with WKY rats(P
