Abstract

|
|
This experiment was performed to determine the effect of Jibeakjihwanghwangami(JJHG) on hypertension in monocrotaline-induced hypertensive rats. The results obtained were as follows : 1. JJHG showed a safety in cytotoxicity and toxicity of liver. 2. JJHG showed scavenging activity on DPPH free radicals and SOD-like activity. 3. JJHG showed an inhibitory effect on ACE. 4. JJHG significantly decreased blood pressure and pulse in monocrotaline-induced hypertensive rats. 5. JJHG significantly decreased the levels of plasma aldosterone in monocrotaline-induced hypertensive rats. 6. JJHG significantly decreased the levels of potassium in monocrotaline-induced hypertensive rats. 7. JJHG significantly decreased the levels of uric acid. BUN, and creatinine in monocrotaline-induced hypertensive rats. These results suggest that JJHG might be effective in treatment and prevention of hypertension.
