All values are the mean±SD (n=4).
Values in the column are not significantly different (p<0.05).
In the same column are significantly different (p<0.05).
In the same row are significantly different (p<0.05).
SHR, spontaneously hypertensive rats; NG, normal group (WKY) with distilled water; NCG, negative control group (SHR) with distilled water; PCG, positive control group (SHR) with Enalapril; LTG, low treatment group (SHR); MTG, medium treatment group (SHR); HTG, high treatment group (SHR); WKY, Wistar-Kyoto rats.
