The Acute Antihypertensive Effects of Recombinant Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Inhibitory Peptides on Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats / 中华高血压杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the effect of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitory peptides (ACEIP) on blood pressure of spontaneously hypertensive rats.Methods One hundred and four spontaneously hypertensive rats(SHR) were randomized to thirteen groups (n= 8,each group) and received one of following approachessaline,captopril (10 mg/kg),low-dose (200 ?g/kg),medium-dose(400 ?g/kg) and high-dose (800 ?g/kg) of the three ACEIPsVLPVP,KVLPVP,VLPVPR respectively.Thirty-two WKY rats were randomized to 4 groups(n=8 in each group),VLPVP,KVLPVP,VLPVPR (800 ?g/kg by gavage) and saline were administrated.The systolic blood pressure was measured before and after the administration of ACEIP.Results Compared with the control group,medium-dose and high-dose of VLPVP,KVLPVP and VLPVPR reduce blood pressure in hypertensive rats and the effect can last for above 6 hours [decline of blood pressurehigh-dose(40.9?15.7),(38.0?21.3) and (43.2?12.6) mmHg;medium-dose(28.3?23.0),(24.7?21.5) and (26.2?9.9);control(8.5?5.1),(6.2?4.1) and (7.1?5.5)mmHg;all P0.05].Conclusion Recombinant ACEIP acutely reduce high blood pressure in SHR,the antihypertensive effects persist for at least 6 hours,with no effect on normotensive WKY rats.
