Figures & data

Figure 1. ACE inhibitory activity of EA extract purified by NP-VLC; Captopril was used as the positive control. The results were expressed as % of ACE inhibition with respect to the control. Each value was the mean of three independent determinations.

Figure 4. Systolic blood pressure (mm Hg) of mice treated with water (control, 1 ml/0.1kg/day, n = 5) or treated with L-NAME (30 mg/kg/day, n = 5). After the hypertension was established, a group of mice was treated with captopril (30 mg/kg/day, n = 5) as positive control group. Data are represented as means ± SEM. *Significantly different from the control group.

After the hypertension was established, a group of mice was treated with ME (a) or EA (b) of M. oleifera (300 mg/kg/day, n = 5). Data are represented as means ± SEM. *Significantly different from L-NAME-treated mice.
