In order to examine the effect of Arbutus unedo extract on the development of genetic hypertension, three groups of six male spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) from 4 to 10 weeks of age, received orally an aqueous extract of the root of this Ericaceae plant at doses of 5, 50 and 250 mg/kg/24 h.

The hypotensive and vasorelaxant effects of 3-n-butylphthalide (BuPh) and its possible mechanisms of action were investigated in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) for the first time. A 13-day intraperitoneal infusion of BuPh at doses of 2.0 and 4.0 mg/day produced a transient hypotensive effect
Nicardipine, a dihydropyridine type calcium channel blocker, was infused at two flow-rates into spontaneously hypertensive (SH) and control normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats (young, 6-week-old and adult, 23-week-old, n = 5) under pentobarbital anesthesia, to cause hypotension.

4-Hydroxynonenal (HNE) degradation was investigated in isolated perfused rat hearts of the WKY and SHR strains before and after ischemia. HNE (10 pmoles I-') were infused and the concentration of HNE in the effluent was determined. The rate of initial consumption was about 50nmoles min-' g-' wet wei
