Abstract:
Object To probe into the antihypertension activity mechanism of extracts from Compound Jueming (CJ). Methods The method of radioimmunoassay was used to assay the concentration of the related substances on spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) such as angiotensin Ⅱ (ANGⅡ), renin activity (RA), endothelin (ET), atrial natriuretic polypeptide (ANP), aldosterone (ALD), and urine. Results All of the three doses (9.5, 7.2, and 4.8 g/kg) of extracts from CJ reduced ANG Ⅱ and RA, but had no influence on ALD, ET, ANP, and urine in SHR. Conclusion The antihypertension effect of extracts from CJ is related to decreasing of renin angiotensin, but not to ALD, ET, ANP, and urine.
