Popis: | Hypertension is one of the primary risk factors for cardiovascular diseases. Numerous proteins serve a critical role in hypertension. Acupuncture has been widely used as a treatment for hypertension in China. The results of the current study suggested that electroacupuncture (EA), twirling reinforcing manipulation (TRFM) and twirling reducing manipulation (TRDM) may be useful in the treatment of hypertension. Additionally, proteome analysis of spontaneously hypertensive rats treated with EA, TRFM and TRDM was performed. There were 117 (EA group), 61 (TRFM group) and 86 (TRDM group) differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) identified in the respective experimental groups compared with the model group. Moreover, parallel reaction monitoring assays were used to validate the reliability of the DEPs. The majority of the results were consistent with previous proteomics results, in particular that for expression of neudesin neurotrophic factor (NENF). NENF may potentially represent an antihypertensive drug target. |
