Extract of Plantago asiatica L. Seeds Ameliorates Hypertension in Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats by Inhibition of Angiotensin Converting Enzyme
In conclusion, we have demonstrated that PASE has the long-acting anti-hypertension effect and ACE inhibition may be the mechanism of PASE antihypertensive activity. Phenylethanoid glycosides including isoacteoside, plantamajoside and acteoside, might be considered as major active compounds of PASE for the antihypertensive effect in SHRs. Meanwhile, PASE also protects organ injury including LVH, vascular remodeling and renal dysfunction. Our results suggest that PASE may be a potential therapy for blood pressure controlling and cardiovascular disease prevention.
