Beneficial Changes in Rat Vascular Endocannabinoid System in Primary Hypertension and under Treatment with Chronic Inhibition of Fatty Acid Amide Hydrolase by URB597.
Our study aimed to examine the effects of hypertension and the chronic administration of the fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) inhibitor URB597 on vascular function and the endocannabinoid system in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). Functional studies were performed on small mesenteric G3 arteries (sMA) and aortas isolated from SHR and normotensive Wistar Kyoto rats (WKY) treated with URB597 (1 mg/kg; twice daily for 14 days). In the aortas and sMA of SHR, endocannabinoid levels and cannabinoid CB Topics: Acetylcholine; Amidohydrolases; Animals; Aorta; Arachidonic Acids; Benzamides; Carbamates; Endocannabinoids; Essential Hypertension; Hypertension; Male; Mesenteric Arteries; Nitroprusside; Polyunsaturated Alkamides; Rats; Rats, Inbred SHR; Rats, Inbred WKY; Receptors, Cannabinoid; Vasoconstriction; Vasodilation | 2021 |
