Abstract

Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death worldwide. Hypertension is the most important cause of such conditions. The use of medicinal herbs is of particular importance due to their lower cost and side effects. The aim of the present study was to compare the effect of hesperidin (HES) and crocin (CRO) alone and in combination, on blood pressure in a rat model of high‑fat diet (HFD)‑induced hypertension, using invasive carotid artery measurements. Animals were randomly assigned to the following groups: control group (received standard chow diet), HFD control group (received HFD containing 32% kcal of fat and 0.1% cholesterol), and three groups of HFD‑treated animals that were treated with a single dose of CRO (20 mg/kg), HES (20 mg/kg), or CRO + HES (20 + 20 mg/kg). Except for the control group, rats received HFD for 7 weeks. On day 50, CRO, HES and normal saline were administered intraperitoneally and carotid arteries of the rats were cannulated. Three hours after the carotid artery cannulation, mean arterial blood pressure (MAP), systolic and diastolic blood pressure (SBP and DBP), and heart rate (HR) were measured using an intra‑arterial catheter with the use of a Power Lab system. Data was analyzed using SPSS software. Rats that received HFD for 49 days presented a significant increase in SBP, HR and MAP compared to the control group (P<0.001). Whereas, HFD‑treated rats of the CRO + HES group showed lower levels of SBP, HR and MAP; however, DBP remained unaffected. HES administration in HFD treated rats resulted in a significant decrease in SBP compared to the HFD control group with no significant differences in MAP. The hypotensive effects of the simultaneous administration of CRO and HES in HFD‑hypertensive rats suggest the need for further study of these two natural products as a potential preventive measure against hypertension development, especially in patients with high normal blood pressure.
