Kalanchoe pinnata aqueous extract possesses vasorelaxant activities contributing to its antihypertensive effects in a model of rat-induced hypertension and myocardial infarction

Abstract: Background and aim: Kalanchoe pinnata is an herbal medicine used in Cameroon against cardiovascular diseases. Hypertension and myocardial infarction are among key risk factors of cardiovascular diseases. This research aimed to investigate antihypertensive effect of Kalanchoe pinnata in salt loaded myocardial infarcted rats and possible mechanism of action on vascular smooth muscle. Experimental procedure: Thirty rats were equally distributed into six groups: neutral, negative and positive controls and three te… Show more

“…Wistar rats were raised in the Animal House of the Department of Animal Biology and Conservation, University of Buea, under the same conditions previously described by Tom et al [17]. A total of 30 adult rats aged 3-4 months, weighting 155-190g, were randomly distributed, as previously [17], into five groups of six animals each (Table 1). The dose of 100mg/kg/day of K. pinnata aqueous extract has been considered, from our previous findings [14], as the "therapeutic dose" [17].…”
