Abstract:
Objective To test the hypothese that extreme low estrogen level will lead to elevation of blood pressure.Methods Thirty-two adult male SD rats were submitted to following approaches:control(n=8),orchi- ectomy(n=8),orchieetomy plus letrozole,an inhibitor of estrogen synthese [5 mg/(kg?d)by gavage,n=8], letrozole treatment in intact testis rats(n=8).Four weeks after treatment,SBP,serum testosterone(T),estradiol (E_2),nitric oxide(NO),endotheline(ET),thromboxane(TXB_2),prostacyelin(6-Keto-PGF_(1?)),atrial naturetic pep- tide(ANP),C type natriuretic peptide(CNP)were determined.Results SBP was increased significantly after or- chiectomy compared with control rats(orehiectomy:171?17 vs control:156?14 mmHg,P
