Abstract
Hypertension and diabetes mellitus (DM) are two of the leading lifestyle diseases in the Indian and South Asian populations that often co-exist due to overlapping pathophysiological factors. Obesity, insulin resistance, inflammation, and oxidative stress are thought to be some common pathways. Up to 50% of hypertensive cases in India are diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), which defines the need for a comprehensive guideline for managing hypertension in diabetic patients. These RSSDI guidelines have been formulated based on consultation with expert endocrinologists in India and Southeast Asia, acknowledging the needs of the Indian population. Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring and office and home-based blood pressure (BP) monitoring are recommended for the early analysis of risks. Cardiovascular risks, end-organ damage, and renal disorders are the primary complications associated with diabetic hypertension that needs to be managed with the help of non-pharmacological and pharmacological interventions. The non-pharmacological interventions include the nutrition education of the patient to reduce the intake of salt, sodium, and trans fats and increase the consumption of nuts, fresh fruits, vegetables, and potassium-rich foods. It is also recommended to initiate 50 to 60 min of exercise three to four times a week since physical activity has shown to be more beneficial for hypertension control in Indian patients than dietary modulation. For the pharmacological management of hypertension in patients with T2DM, angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs) are recommended as the first line of therapy, demonstrating their superiority over other antihypertensive agents such as ACEi. However, most of the global hypertension guidelines recommend initiation with combination therapy to achieve better BP control in most patients and to reduce the risk of adverse events. For combination therapy, calcium channel blockers (CCBs) are recommended to be administered along with ARBs instead of beta-blockers or diuretics to avoid the risk of cardiovascular events and hyperglycaemia. Among the CCBs, novel molecules (e.g. cilnidipine) are recommended in combination with ARBs for better cardiovascular and reno-protection in diabetic hypertensive patients.

Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Luehea divaricata Mart. (Malvaceae) is an important medicinal species that is widely used as a diuretic in the Brazilian Pantanal region. An ethanolic supernatant that was obtained from an infusion of leaves of this species (ESLD) was recently shown to exert hypotensive and diuretic activity. Nevertheless, the secondary metabolites that are responsible for this activity and the molecular mechanisms of pharmacological action remain unknown. AIM We performed a detailed study to identify possible active metabolites that are present in different ESLD fractions and investigated their effects on renal and peripheral arteriolar tone. We further evaluated their interrelations with sustained diuretic and hypotensive actions. MATERIALS AND METHODS The ESLD was first obtained from L. divaricata leaves, and liquid-liquid fractionation was performed. The fractions were analyzed by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. An ethyl acetate fraction (AceFr), n-butanolic fraction (ButFr), and aqueous fraction (AqueFr) were then orally administered in male Wistar rats in a single dose or daily for 7 days. The doses were previously defined based on the yield that was obtained from each fraction. Hydrochlorothiazide was used as a positive control. Blood pressure, heart rate, urinary volume, pH, density, and urinary sodium, potassium, chloride, and calcium levels were measured. Serum levels of nitrite, thiobarbituric acid reactive species, nitrotyrosine, aldosterone, vasopressin, and plasma angiotensin converting enzyme activity were also measured. Finally, the direct effects of the ButFr on renal and mesenteric arteriolar tone and the role of nitric oxide and prostaglandins in the renal and hemodynamic effects were investigated. RESULTS Of the fractions that were tested, only the ButFr exerted significant diuretic and saluretic effects. The AceFr and ButFr also had acute hypotensive effects, but only the ButFr maintained its response after 7 days of treatment. Prolonged treatment with the ButFr increased serum nitrite levels and significantly reduced oxidative and nitrosative markers of stress. Additionally, the ButFr caused a vasodilatory response in the renal and mesenteric arteriolar beds through the release of nitric oxide and prostaglandins. Finally, the diuretic and hypotensive effects of the ButFr were completely blocked by pretreatment with Nω-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester and indomethacin, thus demonstrating the direct involvement of nitric oxide and prostaglandins in these effects. CONCLUSION The ButFr that was obtained from Luehea divaricata exerted sustained diuretic and hypotensive effects. These effects were apparently attributable to the release of nitric oxide and prostaglandins, which reduce renal and peripheral arteriolar tone and lead to an increase in the glomerular filtration rate and a reduction of global peripheral resistance. These findings suggest that the ButFr may be a potential complementary therapy for several conditions in which diuretic and hypotensive effects are required.

Abstract
Many studies have shown that flavonoids are effective as antihypertensive drugs in arterial hypertension. In the present work, we have analyzed the effects of some flavonoid extracts in the spontaneous hypertensive rat model (SHR). An important feature of this study is that we have used a low dose, far from those that are usually applied in human therapy or experimental animals, a dose that responded to the criterion of a potential future commercial use in human subjects. Treatments were carried out for 6 and 12 weeks in two groups of SHR rats, which received apigenin, lemon extract, grapefruit + bitter orange (GBO) extracts, and cocoa extract. Captopril was used as a positive control in the SHR group treated for 6 weeks (SHR6) and Diosmin was used as the industry reference in the SHR group treated for 12 weeks (SHR12). Captopril and GBO extracts lowered the high arterial pressure of the SHR6 animals, but none of the extracts were effective in the SHR12 group. Apigenin, lemon extract (LE), GBO, and captopril also improved aortic vascular relaxation and increased plasma and urinary excretion of nitrites, but only in the SHR6 group. Kidney and urinary thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) were also significantly reduced by GBO in the SHR6 rats. Apigenin also improved vascular relaxation in the SHR12 group and all the flavonoids studied reduced urinary thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) excretion and proteinuria. Vascular abnormalities, such as lumen/wall ratio in heart arteries and thoracic aorta, were moderately improved by these treatments in the SHR6 group. In conclusion, the flavonoid-rich extracts included in this study, especially apigenin, LE and GBO improved vascular vasodilatory function of young adult SHRs but only the GBO-treated rats benefited from a reduction in blood pressure. These extracts may be used as functional food ingredients with a moderate therapeutic benefit, especially in the early phases of arterial hypertension.

Abstract
A significant factor in the development of hypertension may be excessive vasoconstriction within the renal medulla. This study therefore investigated the role of superoxide dismutase (SOD) in the regulation of renal medullary and cortical blood perfusion (MBP and CBP, respectively) in both stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRSP) and normotensive Wistar rats. CBP and MBP were measured before and after intra-renal infusion of the SOD inhibitor, diethyldithio-carbamic acid (DETC). Under basal conditions, mean arterial pressure was significantly greater in SHRSP than Wistar rats, but both MBP and heart rate (HR) were significantly lower in SHRSP relative to Wistar rats (P<0.05, n=7 in both groups). Infusion of DETC (2 mg/kg/min) into the cortico-medullary border area of the kidney significantly decreased MBP in the SHRSPs (by 28±3 %, n=7, P<0.05), indicating a greater vasoconstriction within this vascular bed. However, DETC also significantly decreased MBP in Wistar rats to a similar extent (24±4 %, n=7, P<0.05). These results suggest that superoxide anions play a significant role in reducing renal vascular compliance within the renal medulla in both normotensive and hypertensive animals, although the responses are not greater in the hypertensive relative to the control animals.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to investigate the expression level of dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1) in vascular endothelium of hypertension rats and its correlation with expression of inflammatory factors. Twenty spontaneous hypertension rats (SHR) were randomly divided into SHR group (n=10) and inhibition group (MD group, n=10), and the Sprague Dawley rats were enrolled as the control group (C group, n=10). For rats in the MD group, Mdivi-1, a mitochondrial division inhibitor, was given in dosage of 25 mg/kg. After 4 weeks of administration, blood pressure was measured via tail-artery blood pressure measurement. The blood samples collected from the abdominal aorta of rats were used to assay the C-reaction protein (CRP) concentration in serum through radioimmunoassay. Hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining was performed for sections of thoracic aorta for morphological observation and measurement of medial thickness. Enzyme-linked immunosorbant assay (ELISA), semi-quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and western blotting was carried out for detecting the expression levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α). Drp1 and monocyte chemotactic protein 1 (MCP-1). After 4 weeks of drug administration, the blood pressure in the MD group was significantly higher (P<0.01). The medial thickness of the thoracic aorta in the MD group was significantly decreased in comparison with the SHR group (P<0.01). The results of ELISA showed that compared with the SHR group, the expression levels of IL-6 and TNF-α in the MD group were remarkably decreased (P<0.01). Semi-quantitative RT-PCR results indicated that the mRNA expression levels of Drp1 and MCP-1 in the MD group were significantly lower than those in the SHR group (P<0.05). In the SHR rats, after administration of Mdivi-1, the expression of Drp1 is decreased, which contributes to the alleviation in inflammatory reactions and protects the vessels in SHR rats.
