Objectives: The present study investigated the effects of aqueous extract of Hibiscus sabdariffa (HS) on the three basic components of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system: Plasma renin, serum angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), and plasma aldostero

Pregnancy and lactation are accompanied by an increase in circulating blood volume secondary to a 10 mOsmol/kgH20 decrease in plasma osmolality, decrease in the osmotic threshold for thirst and arginine vasopressin (AVP) release, prolactin-induced AV

Stigma/style of Zea mays L (Corn silk) has been documented to have hypotensive effect on blood pressure and to relieve oedema. However we are not aware of any literature on its hypotensive effect on intraocular pressure (IOP) of humans or animals. We

Male reproductive function is one of the mammalian systems that are impaired by diabetes mellitus and on the average, it will affect many more men prior to and during their reproductive years. The present study aimed to compare proliferating cell nuc

Background: Hibiscus sabdariffa (HS) is widely consumed in Nigeria as a refreshing beverage and also as an antihypertensive agent. Since three decades ago when its antihypertensive activities were reported in several animal experiments, its consumpti
Large doses of angiotensin when infused intravenously or into the renal artery cause natriuresis. The initial effect is release of prostaglandin (probably PGE) and this leads to release of kallikrein. This latter step can be inhibited by noradrenalin

In human, thirst and antidiuretic hormone (ADH) are controlled by similar sensitive osmoregulatory mechanisms such that above a certain osmotic threshold (280-288 mOsm/kg H20) there is a linear relationship between the increase in plasma osmolality a

Mammalian reproduction is dynamically regulated by the pituitary gonadotropins, luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). These hormones are synthesized in the pituitary gland following stimulation by the gonadotropin-releasing
