Effects of puerarin on apelin-12, angiotensin II,NO and blood pressure in renovascular hypertensive rat

AIM: To investigate the effects of puerarin on blood pressure in renovascular hypertensive rats, and to measure puerarin-induced changes of apelin-12, angiotensin II (Ang II) and nitric oxide(NO), the factors related to development of hypertension. METHODS: Sixty-five male Sprague-Dawley rats were used, of which 8 rats were randomly selected as sham operation group, and the remaining were used to make two-kidney, one-clip model. The rats that met the criterion for Goldblatt hypertensive rat model were randomly allocated into 5 groups: high-, middle- and low-dose puerarin groups, captopril group, and model group. The drugs were administered for 6 weeks. Blood pressure was measured every 2 weeks. Six weeks after treatment, all rats were sacrificed under deep anesthesia. Blood and kidney samples were collected. The level of apelin-12 in serum and kidneys was detected by ELISA. The level of Ang II in plasma and kidneys was measured by radioimmunoassay. NO level in serum was examined by nitrate reductase assay. RESULTS: Puerarin had an antihypertensive effect in a dose-dependent manner. Marked decreases in the level of serum apelin-12 in high- and middle-dose puerarin groups were observed(P<0.01). Puerarin at low dose did not cause obvious change in the content of apelin but still reached significant level (P<0.05). As the dose of puerarin went up, the level of apelin-12 in the kidneys was gradually decreased. Puerarin at high and middle doses obviously reduced the level of AngII in plasma, while purarin at low dose did not produce any significant effects. Puerarin at high and middle doses markedly increased the level of NO in serum, but puerarin at low dose did not induce any significant changes. CONCLUSION: Puerarin has an antihypertensive effect, and its mechanism may be related to inducing the changes of apelin, Ang II and NO, and regulating the balance among those factors.

中国六省土地沙漠化敏感性时空格局与趋势分析

以我国新疆维吾尔自治区、青海省、内蒙古自治区、甘肃省、宁夏回族自治区和陕西省六省区为研究区,分析了1990年、2000年、2005年、2010年4个时期的土地沙漠化敏感性空间格局分布和时间动态变化特征,探讨变化成因并采用CA-Markov耦合模型对土地沙漠化敏感性格局变化趋势进行预测。结果表明:中国六省四期土地沙漠化敏感性格局相似,各级敏感区按分布面积大小排序为:轻度敏感区域 > 中度敏感区域 > 高度敏感区域 > 不敏感区域 > 极敏感区域。极敏感区域主要分布在土壤质地为流动沙地的沙漠区域,不敏感区域主要分布在高山、湖泊附近;人口增多、人为活动强度增加的区域敏感性程度增高;建立治沙工程的区域敏感性降低。对2020年土地沙漠化敏感性格局预测结果显示,相比2010年,极敏感区域在原有的基础上向外围扩张了7 120.04 km²,增幅为4.63%。本文通过分析中国六省土地沙漠化敏感性时空格局与趋势,为中国土地沙漠化防治分区策略制定和划分沙漠化扩展屏障区提供科学依据。
