Kamicheonmagudeungeum(KCGE), a traditional herbal medicine, has been used as a therapeutic agent for the treatments of acute stage of hypertension. We evaluated the effects of KCGE on hypertension induced by DOCA-salt in rats. The systolic blood pressure and pulse rate significantly lowered by oral administration with KCGE. The levels of plasma hormones including dopamine, epinephrine and norepinephrine, and serum electrolyte were also reduced in KCGE treated rats. In addition, the production of reactive oxigen species (ROS) were greatly decreased by the treatment with KCGE in cultured bovine endothelial cells and angiotensine converting enzyme (ACE) activites were also inhibited by KCGE in a dose dependent manner. This study indicated that KCGE is a safe and effective treatment for hypertension.
