Candesartan is one of angiotensin II type1 receptor blockers(ARB) and commonly used as first-line antihypertensive treatment. Low salt diet is often recommended by clinicians to the patients with hypertension and kidney diseases. However,it is not clear whether salt restriction is beneficial to the patients taking ARB. In order to explore this problem, the impacts of different salt diets on blood pressure (BP),renal function and oxidative stress were determined in 2-3 months old male Sprague Dawley rats treated with candesartan. The rats were randomly divided into 4 groups fed agar-gelled food rationally with NaCl content at 0.01%, 0.8%, 2% and 4% respectively(4-7 rats/group) while all rats were intraperitoneally injected with candesartan at 1mg / kg / day for 7 days. SBP started to decline on day 2 in all except 4% NaCl groups relative to day 0 (recorded 5-6 hrs before the first injection). On day 6, systolic BP (mmHg, tail-cuff, Softron,BP-98A) was lower in 0.8% (103.7+2.3) & 0.01% (101.6+3) groups than 2% (113.5+4.1) & 4% (129.9+4.6) groups (one way ANOVA,LSD test, P<0.05) and correlated positively with food NaCl intakes (R 2 =0.9832). DBP was changed in a similar pattern as SBP. Serum creatinine (μmol/L) was higher in 0.01% group (225+39) than groups of 0.8% (1328+350), 2% (2095+242) and 4% (1576+703) while creatinine clearance (ml/day) was lower in 0.01% group (69.3+9) than groups of 0.8% (43.7+9), 2%(27.7+2) and 4%(29+0.6). In order to determine whether oxidative stress plays any role in the BP regulation and renal function maintenance, we also checked renal protein expression of ROS components. Relative to 0.8% group, renal NOXs were not altered in 0.01% group while NOX1 (145+18,% of 0.8% group), NOX2 (240+54) and NOX4 (197+41) was higher in 2% group than other groups. Mn-SOD (77+7.8), not Cu-Zn SOD, was decreased while HO1 (170+16), not HO2, was increased in 0.01% group. Renal abundance of nitrotyrosine was lower in 0.01% than other groups indicating a decreased oxidative stress, possibly caused by increase in HO1. We concluded that salt restriction with candesartan is beneficial to antihypertensive effect of AT1R blockade but disadvantage to maintenance of renal function. Thus, cautions to choice of low salt intakes are necessary when taking ARB agents.

Dietary Salt Restriction

The idea that an osmotically inactive Na+ storage pool exists that can be varied to accommodate states of Na+ retention and/or Na+ loss is controversial. We speculated that considerable amounts of osmotically inactive Na+ are lost with growth and that additional dietary salt excess or salt deficit alters the polyanionic character of extracellular glycosaminoglycans in osmotically inactive Na+ reservoirs. Six-week-old Sprague-Dawley rats were fed low-salt (0.1%; LS) or high-salt (8%; HS) diets for 1 or 4 wk. At their death, we separated the tissues and determined their Na+, K+, and water content. Three weeks of growth reduced the total body Na+ content relative to dry weight (rTBNa+) by 23%. This “growth-programmed” Na+ loss originated from the bone and the completely skinned and bone-removed carcasses. The Na+ loss was osmotically inactive (45–50%) or osmotically active (50–55%). In rats aged 10 wk, compared with HS, 4 wk of LS reduced rTBNa+ by 9%. This dietary-induced Na+ loss was osmotically inactive (≈50%) and originated largely from the skin, while ≈50% was osmotically active. LS for 1 wk did not reduce skin Na+ content. The mobilization of osmotically inactive skin Na+ with long-term salt deprivation was associated with decreased negatively charged skin glycosaminoglycan content and thereby a decreased water-free Na+ binding capacity in the extracellular matrix. Our data not only serve to explain discrepant results in salt balance studies but also show that glycosaminoglycans may provide an actively regulated interstitial cation exchange mechanism that participates in volume and blood pressure homeostasis.

Cisplatin is extensively used and is highly effective in clinical oncology; nevertheless, nephrotoxicity has severely limited its widespread utility. Isoquercitrin (IQC), a natural flavonoid widely found in herbage, is well known and recognized for its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-apoptotic properties. However, the potential effects and mechanism of IQC in cisplatin-induced acute kidney diseases remain unknown. In this study, we postulated the potential effects and mechanism of IQC upon cisplatin exposure in vivo and in vitro. For the in vivo study, C57BL/6J mice were pretreated with IQC or saline (50 mg/kg/day) by gavage for 3 days before cisplatin single injection (25 mg/kg). Renal function, apoptosis, inflammation, oxidative stress and p-ERK were measured to evaluate kidney injury. In vitro, mouse proximal tubular cells (mPTCs) and human proximal tubule epithelial cell line (HK2) were pretreated with or without IQC (80 μM for mPTCs and 120 μM for HK2) for 2 h and then co-administrated with cisplatin for another 24 h. Apoptosis, inflammation, ROS and p-ERK of cells were also measured. In vivo, IQC administration strikingly reduced cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity as evidenced by the improvement in renal function (serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen), kidney histology (PAS staining), apoptotic molecules (cleaved caspase-3, caspase-8, Bax and Bcl-2), inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, and COX-2), oxidative stress (MDA and total glutathione) and p-ERK. In line with in vivo findings, IQC markedly protected against cisplatin-induced cell injury in mPTCs and HK2 cells. Collectively, these findings demonstrated that IQC administration could significantly protect against cisplatin nephrotoxicity possibly through ameliorating apoptosis, inflammation and oxidative stress accompanied by cross talk with p-ERK. Furthermore, IQC may have potential therapeutic uses in the treatment of cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury.

Introduction. We studied the acute effects of Olmesartan and Telmisartan at baseline and at the end of four weeks on indices of hemodynamics (heart rate HR, blood pressure BP), vascular (carotid femoral pulse wave velocity cf PWV, digital arterial tone expressed as Reflection index RI, and endothelial dependent vasodilator response EDVR), and oxidative stress (serum Malondialdehyde MDA) in hypertensive patients. Materials and Methods. The eligible patients were randomly allocated to either 20 mg Olmesartan or 40 mg Telmisartan. Results. 40 subjects received Olmesartan, and 29 received Telmisartan. After four weeks of treatment the mean changes from baseline in the Olmesartan group versus Telmisartan group are SBP -9.8±10 versus -6.3±12 mm Hg, P=0.24; DBP -6.1±11 versus -4.2±12.5 mm Hg, P=0.55; cf PWV -1.6±1.2 versus -0.9±1.4 m/s, P=0.04; EDVR -8.2±5.2 versus -5.2±5.7%, P=0.04; and MDA -1.9±1.1 versus -1.2±1.2 ηMol/mL, P=0.03. Conclusion. Olmesartan showed a better improvement in cf PWV, EDVR, and MDA than Telmisartan with an identical reduction in blood pressure.

Introduction: Periodontitis is a lifestyle-related disease that is characterized by chronic inflammation in gingival tissue. Febuxostat, a xanthine oxidase inhibitor, exerts anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. Objective: The present study investigated the effects of febuxostat on periodontitis in a rat model. Methods: Male Wistar rats were divided into 3 groups: control, periodontitis, and febuxostat-treated periodontitis groups. Periodontitis was induced by placing a ligature wire around the 2nd maxillary molar and the administration of febuxostat (5 mg/kg/day) was then initiated. After 4 weeks, alveolar bone loss was assessed by micro-computed tomography and methylene blue staining. The expression of osteoprotegerin (OPG), a bone resorption inhibitor, was detected by quantitative RT-PCR and immunological staining, and the number of osteoclasts in gingival tissue was assessed by tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase staining. The mRNA and protein expression levels of the proinflammatory cytokines, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), and interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β), in gingival tissue were measured using quantitative RT-PCR and immunological staining. Oxidative stress in gingival tissue was evaluated by the expression of 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (4-HNE), and 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG). To clarify the systemic effects of periodontitis, blood pressure and glucose tolerance were examined. Results: In rats with periodontitis, alveolar bone resorption was associated with reductions in OPG and increases in osteoclast numbers. The gingival expression of TNF-α, IL-1β, 4-HNE, and 8-OHdG was up-regulated in rats with periodontitis. Febuxostat significantly reduced alveolar bone loss, proinflammatory cytokine levels, and oxidative stress. It also attenuated periodontitis-induced glucose intolerance and blood pressure elevations. Conclusion: Febuxostat prevented the progression of periodontitis and associated systemic effects by inhibiting proinflammatory mediators and oxidative stress.

Galangin is a natural flavonoid. In this study, we evaluated whether galangin could alleviate signs of metabolic syndrome (MS) and cardiac abnormalities in rats receiving a high-fat (HF) diet. Male Sprague–Dawley rats were given an HF diet plus 15% fructose for four months, and they were fed with galangin (25 or 50 mg/kg), metformin (100 mg/kg), or a vehicle for the last four weeks. The MS rats exhibited signs of MS, hypertrophy of adipocytes, impaired liver function, and cardiac dysfunction and remodeling. These abnormalities were alleviated by galangin (p < 0.05). Interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α concentrations and expression were high in the plasma and cardiac tissue in the MS rats, and these markers were suppressed by galangin (p < 0.05). These treatments also alleviated the low levels of adiponectin and oxidative stress induced by an HF diet in rats. The downregulation of adiponectin receptor 1 (AdipoR1) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and the upregulation of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) expression were recovered in the galangin-treated groups. Metformin produced similar effects to galangin. In conclusion, galangin reduced cardiometabolic disorders in MS rats. These effects might be linked to the suppression of inflammation and oxidative stress and the restoration of AdipoR1, COX-2, and NF-κB expression.
