Research Abstract |
In order to examine the effect of plant polyphenols on maternal blood pressure, oxidative stress, and glucose and lipid metabolism in pregnancy-induced hypertension rat models, pregnant rats were treated by nitric oxide(NO) synthase inhibitor or excess intake of fructose. In NO-deficient pregnant rats, azuki bean polyphenols up-regulated significantly renal expression of Mn-superoxide dismutase, although significant decrease in maternal blood pressure was not observed. In fructose-fed pregnant rats, azuki bean polyphenols partly diminished hepatic expression of lipogenic transcription factor
