18b-glycyrrhetinic acid increases blood pressure in rats through the action on myoendothelial gap junctions

Abstract: 18b-glycyrrhetinic acid (GA), a pentacyclic triterpenoid found in the roots of licorice plants (Glycyrrhiza glabra), posseses high biological activity, including anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties. Additionally, it effectively blocks myoendothelial gap junctions. Our experiments on adult Wistar rats have shown that GA administration via gavage in the dose 0.015 g per 100 g of body weight caused a significant increase in arterial blood pressure measured both invasively and non-invasively as early as… Show more
