Description

Yajuan Zheng and nine co-authors tested a plant oil treatment in two thousand twenty-three for high blood pressure in the lungs of rats. The oil, from Descurainia sophia seeds, is unstable and dissolves poorly, which limits its effect. The team wrapped the oil in tiny carrier particles to fix those weak points.

In cells, the particles curbed harmful growth of artery muscle cells and protected their power units, by blocking a calcium signal pathway. In rats, the treatment lowered artery pressure and eased damage and swelling in heart and lung. The study points to a better way to deliver this plant oil as a drug.
