Accruing evidence have confirmed that the fetal programming in response to adverse environmental in utero factors plays essential roles in the pathogenesis of hypertension in later life. High sugar intake has been accepted worldwide in everyday life diet and becomes the critical public health issue. Our previous studies indicated that intake of high sucrose (HS) during pregnancy could change the vascular...
This study determined the long-term influence of prenatal nicotine exposure (PN) on blood pressure and vascular functions in the aged offspring rats. PN did not affect body weight and plasma adrenocorticotropic hormone level; however, it significantly reduced plasma angiotensin I and angiotensin II in both sexes. Systolic pressure in the male aged PN offspring was significantly higher. Angiotensin...
The present study determined water and salt intake as well as expression of AT 1 and AT 2 receptors in the brain and kidney in the adult offspring rats prenatally exposed to high sucrose. Following the exposure during pregnancy, water intake and salt intake at baseline levels were not changed in the adult offspring. However, after 24h water deprivation, consumption of water and salt...
The outbreak of SARS, a life-threatening disease, has spread over many countries around the world. So far there is no effective drug for the treatment of SARS. Stimulated by the binding mechanism of SARS-CoV M pro with the octapeptide AVLQSGFR reported recently as well as the “Chou's distorted key” theory, we synthesized the octapeptide AVLQSGFR for conducting various biochemical experiments...
