Brachial artery and central aortic pressures were compared in 50 consecutive patients subjected to retrograde left heart catheterization in order to re-emphasize the fact that the two pressures are not necessarily identical. In 43 cases the systemic systolic pressure peaks exceeded those in the central aorta while in seven these pressures were equal. The average pressure difference was 22.6 mm. Hg. The greatest differences occurred in cases of aortic regurgitation and could be extreme, the brachial artery systolic pressure exceeding that in the aorta by more than 100 mm. Hg in some instances. The least differences occurred in cases of aortic stenosis but significant differences occasionally existed, leading to erroneous estimation of valve orifice size if the systemic rather than the aortic systolic pressure was used. 相似文献

The hemodynamic effects of tachycardia were studied in 13 patients with valvular aortic stenosis. Observations were made during sinus rhythm (average heart rate 80 beats/min) and two periods (P1 and P2) when atrial pacing increased the heart rate to 109 and 131 beats/min respectively. The cardiac index did not change, but the left ventricular stroke work index fell from 61.8 to 39.5 g X m/m2 (p less than 0.001) as the heart rate increased. The left ventricular end-diastolic pressure averaged 18 mm Hg during sinus rhythm and fell to about 11.5 mm Hg at P1 and P2 (p less than 0.001). The brachial arterial systolic pressure did not change during pacing, but the left ventricular systolic pressure fell from 208 mm Hg to 201 mm Hg during P1 (p less than 0.05) and 193 mm Hg during P2 (p less than 0.001). The mean systolic aortic valve gradient averaged 64 mm Hg during sinus rhythm and fell to 51 mm Hg during P2 (p less than 0.001), and the peak aortic valve gradient fell from 82 to 69 mm Hg during P2 (p less than 0.001). The left ventricular ejection time fraction increased from 26.9% during sinus rhythm to 31.9% during P1 (p less than 0.05) and 34.7% during P2 (p less than 0.005). Because of the prolonged left ventricular ejection time fraction and smaller stroke volume, a smaller pressure gradient developed across the stenosed valve at higher heart rates. The pacing test was of little value in assessing left ventricular function and thus is not useful during invasive investigations of valvular aortic stenosis. 相似文献

The changes in cardiac and in total haemodynamics, occurring during the first seconds of occlusion and the subsequent desocclusion of coronary arteries were studied on 28 dogs. The most intensive changes were observed after the trunk occlusion of the left coronary artery. Simultaneously with decreasing blood inflow into the myocardium its contractility and the systolic pressure in the left ventricle and the outflow from the coronary sinus began to fall rapidly. The systolic pressure in the left ventricle decreased within the first 10 s from 24 to 13-15 kPa (180 to 100-110 mm Hg), which means that the systolic pressure fell about 1 kPa (7-8 mm Hg) per second, or 0.5-0.6 kPa (4-5 mm Hg) per systole. At the same time the end-diastolic pressure in the left ventricle also increased from zero to 3-4 kPa (25-30 mm Hg). After the trunk desocclusion of the left coronary artery the systolic pressure in the left ventricle proceeded to fall by about 2-3 kPa (15-22 mm Hg). Only then, 20-25 s after the desocclusion, blood flow in the left coronary artery began to rise intensively and 4-6 s later the myocardial contractility and the systolic pressure in the left ventricle also increased. After unclamping (50-60 s), there was an overshoot of haemodynamic values above preocclusive values and then followed the compensatory phase. This phase lasted 80-90 s and on its peak the pressure and flow parameters increased by about 50-60% above preocclusive values. During the occlusion of ramus interventricularis anterior or ramus circumflexus for 30-60 s the haemodynamic parameters changed only slightly. The same was observed during trunk occlusion of the right coronary artery (30-60 s), but in that case many extrasystoles occurred. 相似文献

Comparison was made of 53 “arterialized” capillary (heel prick) samples with descending aortic blood in 26 babies, of whom 24 were less than one week old and 18 had R.D.S.“Arterialized” capillary blood is an accurate and practical means of assessing aortic blood pH and Pco2 over a range of 6.69 to 7.54 and 18 to 94 mm. Hg respectively.“Arterialized” capillary sampling is a reliable means of assessing descending aortic Po2 when the “arterialized” capillary value is less than 60 mm. Hg.When higher than 60 mm. Hg the “arterialized” capillary oxygen tension may be considerably less than that of the blood in the descending aorta, hence the “arterialized” capillary blood oxygen tension method is unreliable in estimating systemic oxygenation when the descending aortic oxygen tension is more than 60 mm.

Coronary effects of endothelin-1 and vasopressin during acute hypotension, and the role of NO and prostanoids in these effects were examined in anesthetized goats. Left circumflex coronary artery flow was measured electromagnetically, and hypotension was induced by constriction of the caudal vena cava in animals non-treated (7 goats) or treated with the inhibitor of NO synthesis N(w)-nitro-L-arginine methyl esther (L-NAME, 5 goats), the cyclooxygenase inhibitor meclofenamate (5 goats) or both drugs (5 goats). Under normotension (22 goats), mean arterial pressure averaged 93 +/- 3 mm Hg and coronary vascular conductance (CVC) 0.37 +/- 0.025 ml/min/mm Hg. Endothelin-1 (0.01-0.3 nmol) and vasopressin (0.03-1 nmol), intracoronarily injected, dose-dependently decreased CVC by up to 56% for endothelin-1 and 40% for vasopressin. During hypotension in every condition tested, mean arterial pressure decreased to approximately 60 mm Hg, and CVC only decreased during hypotension pretreated with L-NAME (23%) or L-NAME + meclofenamate (34%). Under non-treated hypotension, the decreases in CVC by endothelin-1 were augmented approximately 1.5 fold, and those by vasopressin were not modified. This increase in CVR by endothelin-1 was not affected by L-NAME and was reversed by meclofenamate or L-NAME + meclofenamate. The coronary effects of vasopressin were not modified by any of these treatments. Therefore, acute hypotension increases the coronary vasoconstriction in response to endothelin-1 but not to vasopressin. This increased response to endothelin-1 may be related to both inhibition of NO release and release of vasoconstrictor prostanoids. 相似文献

This study is to explore the changes of arterial mechanical properties in streptozotocin (STZ)-diabetic rats, based on the exponentially tapered T-tube model. Rats given STZ 65 mg kg(-1)i.v. are compared with untreated weight- and age-matched controls. A high-fidelity pressure sensor and electromagnetic flow probe measured pulsatile pressure and flow waves in the ascending aorta, respectively. Diabetic rats exhibit isobaric vasodilatation that is characterized by an increase in cardiac output and no significant changes in aortic pressure. Total peripheral resistance of diabetic rats is lower than that of weight- and age-matched controls. Diabetic rats have higher total peripheral compliance (2.86+/-0.70 microl mm Hg(-1)) than do weight- (1.77+/-0.34 microl mm Hg(-1)) and age-matched (1.87+/-0.69 microl mm Hg(-1)) controls. Aortic characteristic impedance is reduced from 0.017+/-0.003 mm Hg min kg ml(-1)in weight- and 0.020+/-0.004 mm Hg min kg ml(-1)in age-matched controls to 0.010+/-0.004 mm Hg min kg ml(-1)in diabetic rats. Moreover, diabetic rats show shorter wave transit time in lower body circulation (17.86+/-1.91 ms) than do weight- (20.45+/-1.91) and age-matched (23.05+/-2.04 ms) controls. Under isobaric vasodilatation, the decreased resistance and increased compliance in peripheral circulation suggest that the contractile dysfunction of the smooth muscle cells may occur in resistance arterioles in diabetes. With unaltered aortic pressure, an impairment in aortic distensibility of STZ-diabetic rats is manifest on the reduced wave transit time rather than on the diminished aortic characteristic impedance. 相似文献

The Langendorff perfused heart is studied in a closed system with (i) automatic regulations to maintain constancy of the perfusion column (Krebs-Henseleit + 0.5% albumin or 25-30% washed erythrocyte suspension), (ii) continuous recording of rate, coronary flow, and supravalvular aortic pressure. A microcomputer with software interface is used for storage treatment and on-line analysis of the recorded variables. In 38 preparations perfused with Krebs-Henseleit, minimal diastolic (61.2 +/- 2.8 mm Hg) is significantly below and peak systolic (98.7 +/- 3.6 mm Hg) significantly above perfusion pressure (80 mm Hg). Pressure difference between minimal diastolic and peak systolic (delta P) is 37.5 +/- 1.8 mm Hg. Increases in perfusion pressure will be associated with increases of coronary flow and delta P, which is also increased by isoprenaline administration. Oxygen consumption decreased by 76% when perfusion pressure was lowered from 80 to 60 mm Hg in hearts perfused with a 30% erythrocyte suspension. All of these experimental results were interpreted as indicating that delta P measured in this system resulted from an ejected volume (x acceleration) from the heart. The ejected volume corresponds to a valvular leak caused by the rigid nature of the system which is devoid of aortic compliance. delta P may be considered an index of left ventricular performance, an indication that the Langendorff preparation studied under the present conditions is a working heart. A 100-microliter volume constant infusion syringe for time administration of cardioactive drugs may be inserted at the base of the perfusion column to obtain dose-response effects. 相似文献

The correlation analysis revealed no correlation within the range 110 to 80 mm Hg further transforming into a direct (within the range lower than 80 mm Hg) dependence of the pressure responses to mesatone on the reduction of initial mean arterial pressure under orthostatic hypotension in anaesthetised rats. Under paraverine hypotension a reverse correlation within the range 110-80 mm Hg transforming into a direct dependence (within the range lower than 80 mm Hg) of the responses to mesatone were observed. The dependence of cardiac shifts to mesatone on the initial arterial pressure was not occurred. The mechanisms of dependence of the systemic vascular responses on initial tone of arterial vessels, are discussed. 相似文献

Systolic and diastolic blood pressures were compared as predictors of death due to coronary heart disease using data on the 10 year mortality outcome from the 18 403 male civil servants, aged 40-64, in the Whitehall study. There were 727 deaths due to coronary heart disease. At entry to the study the systolic pressure in these men was significantly higher than the diastolic pressure, and a standardised index of relative risk for death from coronary heart disease was greater for systolic blood pressure. After adjustment for age the top quintile of systolic pressure (greater than 151 mm Hg) identified 5% more men at risk of death from coronary heart disease than for the top diastolic quintile (greater than 95 mm Hg). The findings suggested that clinicians should pay more attention to systolic levels as a criterion for making diagnostic and therapeutic decisions. 相似文献

Aldosterone has been recognized as an important sodium retaining hormone for many years. Recently we have demonstrated that angiotensin II has a much more powerful antinatriuretic effect than that of aldosterone. The importance of angiotensin II in regulation of sodium excretion has been observed in experiments in which angiotensin II has been infused intravenously or into the renal artery in acute and chronic situations, and in studies involving blockade of angiotensin II formation. In other experiments we have studied the effects of changes in renal perfusion pressure on sodium excretion. While earlier work by others indicated that an acute 10 mm Hg increase in perfusion pressure would increase sodium excretion 60%-70% we observed that a chronic 10 mm Hg change in perfusion pressure would result in a 300% change in sodium excretion. In view of evidence suggesting that changes in the ability of the kidney to excrete sodium normally at normal arterial pressure is an important element in hypertension we studied the effects of aldosterone and angiotensin II on arterial pressure regulation in normal dogs. High physiological levels of each hormone were infused intravenously for several weeks. Both produced sustained hypertension. Aldosterone hypertension was a typical volume loading type with sodium retention, increased blood volume and extracellular fluid volume and a slow rise in arterial pressure. Angiotensin hypertension was a typical vasoconstrictor type with high peripheral resistance, normal or decreased blood volume, decreased cardiac output, a rapid rise in arterial pressure and only initial sodium retention.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Small-intestine submucosa (SIS) is cell-free, 100-mu-thick collagen derived from the small intestine. It has been used as a vascular graft and has the highly desirable ability to be remodeled to become histologically indistinguishable from native adjacent artery. To date there has been limited reporting of its preimplantation and explant mechanical properties as a vascular graft. In this study, compliance, elastic modulus, and burst pressure were measured on preimplant-tested 5- and 8-mm SIS grafts and two 60-day remodeled grafts. Seven prefabricated grafts were implanted in the carotid (n = 7) in dogs, which were sacrificed after 55-63 days. The animals (n = 4) weighed from 22 to 27 kg. One dog received a unilateral carotid graft, and 3 dogs received bilateral carotid grafts. The fabrication technique employed hand-suturing with either nonresorbable or resorbable sutures. None of the grafts had a patency failure. Angiograms taken at 1 month and just before explantation showed uniform flow and no dilation. At the time of explantation, all carotid grafts were found to be encased in fibrous tissue. The grafts made with nonresorbable sutures showed thicker tissue growth at the suture line compared with those made with the resorbable sutures. Along the suture line, the grafts made with resorbable sutures exhibited a more natural color than those sutured with nonresorbable sutures. When the explanted carotid grafts were slit open, the lumen was white, shiny, and glistening. The grafts sutured with nonresorbable sutures exhibited small areas of fibrin and red blood cells when the suture was within the lumen. The resorbable-sutured grafts did not exhibit this response. The mean compliance (percent diameter increase for a pressure rise from 80 to 120 mm Hg) was on average 4.6% (range, 2.9%-8.6%) for the 5-mm preimplant-tested grafts. For the 8-mm preimplant-tested grafts, the increase in diameter for the same pressure rise was 8.7%, on average (range, 7.2% to 9.5%). For comparison, the small-diameter SIS graft at the time of implantation was about one half as compliant as the adjacent dog carotid artery, about 4 times more compliant than a typical vein graft, and more than 10 times more compliant than synthetic vascular grafts. The compliance measured on two 60-day carotid grafts was 10.5% and 7.2%, respectively. This is midway between the original compliance value and the compliance of a typical canine carotid artery (14%), indicating that mechanical remodeling occurred. The modulus of elasticity (E) increased exponentially with increasing pressure according to E = E0e alpha P, where E0 is the zero-pressure modulus and alpha is the exponent that describes the rate of increase in E with pressure; the unit of measure for variables E, E0, and P is g/cm2. The mean value for E0 was 4106 gm/cm2 (range, 1348-5601). The mean value for alpha was 0.0059 (range, 0.0028-0.0125). At 100 mm Hg, the mean value for E was 8.03 x 10(6) dynes/cm2 (range, 4.95-15.7 x 10(6)). For a 60-day SIS graft implant, the elastic modulus at 100 mm Hg decreased from a high value at implant time to twice that of a typical native canine carotid artery. The mean burst pressure for 5.5-mm grafts was 3517 mm Hg (range, 2069-4654). The burst pressure of the remodeled carotid grafts averaged 5660 mm Hg. The burst pressure for a typical carotid artery is about 5000 mm Hg. The results of this preliminary study complement those of previous SIS-vascular-graft studies and add a new factor, namely that the mechanical properties of the remodeled graft approach those of the vessel it replaces. 相似文献

Acute elevation of ureteral pressure to 100 mm Hg in anesthetized dogs (n=7) resulted in an increase (P<0.005) in systemic blood pressure from 151±7 to 163 ± 7 mm Hg, a transient (15 min) increase (P<0.05) in renal blood flow from 413 ± 27 to 465 ± 27 ml/min C and a rise (P<0.05) in plasma renin activity from 6.0 ± 1.6 to 10.3 ± 2.1 ng/ml/hr. Pretreatment with a competitive inhibitor of angiotensin II, i.e. sar1gly8AII, abolished the hypertensive response to acute ureteral obstruction, and pretreatment with 2 mg/kg of either indomethacin (n=6) or meclofenamate (n=3), 15 min before obstruction, prevented the hyperemic response. These results suggest that acute ureteral obstruction leads to hypertension via activation of the renin-angiotensin system and hyperemia via a prostaglandin-initiated mechanism. 相似文献

In acute experiments the participation of coronary and systemic fractions was studied during suppression of the carotid sinus baroreceptors by the occlusion of the carotid arteries and stimulation of the tibial nerve afferent fibers. In most tests systemic fraction was reduced in carotid arteries occlusion and increased in tibial nerve stimulation. The coronary fraction was always increased. The cardiac output (the sum of systemic and coronary fractions) was steady with blood pressure increase by 20 to 70%. The role of coronary fraction in the mechanism of homeometric regulation of the heart is discussed. 相似文献

The effects of a 30 week exercise programme on serum lipid values, blood pressure, and cardiac function were assessed in a group of sedentary men aged 35-50 training for their first marathon. Mean serum cholesterol concentration (n = 33) fell by 12% from 6.54 (SE 0.18) to 5.76 (0.15) mmol/l (mean fall 0.78 mmol/l; 95% confidence interval 0.52 to 1.04 mmol/l), serum triglyceride concentration (n = 33) by 22% from 1.56 (0.17) to 1.21 (0.09) mmol/l (mean fall 0.34 mmol/l; 95% confidence interval 0.12 to 0.56 mmol/l), and mean blood pressure (n = 27) by 10% from 102 (2) to 92 (2) mm Hg (mean fall 10 mm Hg; 95% confidence interval 7 to 13 mm Hg). These changes were not explained by changes in body composition. Peak exercise left ventricular end diastolic volume (n = 16) increased with training; as a result of this and an increased exercise left ventricular ejection fraction peak exercise cardiac output increased from 19.9 (1.2) to 23.1 (3.0) l/min (mean rise 3.2 l/min; 95% confidence interval 1.5 to 5.0 l/min). Maximum oxygen consumption increased from 33.9 (1.6) to 39.0 (1.3) ml/kg/min (mean rise 5.0 ml/kg/min; 95% confidence interval 1.8 to 8.2 ml/kg/min). This study showed favourable effects on coronary risk factors and cardiac function and supports the place of regular exercise in coronary prevention programmes. 相似文献

We investigated the effects of chronic intrauterine hypoxaemia produced by prolonged partial umbilical cord compression on the circulation shortly after birth in lambs. Vascular catheters were inserted in 10 fetal sheep at 120 to 130 days gestation to measure descending aortic blood gases, arterial pH, and arterial O2 saturation. An inflatable silicone rubber balloon cuff was also placed around the umbilical cord. After recovery and the return of descending aortic blood gases to the normal range, the balloon was gradually inflated, decreasing the PaO2 from 21.2 +/- 3.6 to 17.5 +/- 1.3 mm Hg and the arterial O2 saturation from 57.1 +/- 9.2% to 37.2% +/- 5.2. After 14.3 +/- 3.7 days of partial umbilical cord compression, the lambs were delivered by Caesarean section, instrumented to measure systemic and pulmonary arterial, right atrial and pulmonary arterial wedge pressures, pulmonary and systemic blood flows, and mechanically ventilated. Five normal lambs were also studied. From 60 to 120 min after delivery, when compared to normal lambs, the umbilical compression lambs had an increased pulmonary arterial pressure (P less than 0.05) pulmonary vascular resistance (P less than 0.05), and right atrial pressure (P less than 0.05) with similar arterial blood gases. In both groups, hypoxic ventilation produced an increase in pulmonary arterial pressure (P less than 0.05) which on return to room air ventilation decreased to baseline in the normal lambs but not in the umbilical cord compression lambs (P less than 0.05). Prolonged partial umbilical cord compression produces chronic fetal hypoxaemia and pulmonary arterial hypertension after birth. This may represent a model to study the pathophysiology of persistent pulmonary hypertension syndrome. 相似文献

An aqueous extract of Pleurotus sajor-caju was found to have a hypotensive effect in rats. Intravenous infusion of the extract into rats caused a decrease of the mean systemic blood pressure in a dose dependent manner. A typical dose of 25 mg of the extract decreased the mean systemic blood pressure from 110 mm Hg to 70 mm Hg. The systolic and diastolic pressure changed proportionally with minimal alteration in heart rate. The hypotensive effect of the extract was not due to its major electrolyte content because a solution reconstituted with the same electrolyte composition had a transient pressor effect rather than lowering the blood pressure. The same extract was also found to affect renal hemodynamics such that it caused a decrease in the glomerular filtration rate by more than 50% after 120 minutes. The effect did not seem to be mediated through changes in systemic blood pressure. 相似文献

To determine whether changes in heart rate and aortic systolic pressure contribute equally to the determination of left ventricular myocardial oxygen consumption, we independently varied heart rate and pressure and compared the resultant oxygen consumption for similar rate-pressure products. In 6 young lambs which underwent atrioventricular node ablation, we varied heart rate by ventricular pacing at 250 beats/min, 300 beats/min, and 120 beats/min while aortic pressure remained stable and varied aortic systolic pressure by infusion of phenylephrine (to 132 +/- 15 mm Hg and 155 +/- 14 mm Hg) and by infusion of sodium nitroprusside (to 79 +/- 6 mm Hg) while heart rate was maintained stable at 200 beats/min. The 3 levels of change in aortic systolic pressure were chosen so that the ratepressure product during the pressure changes matched the rate-pressure product during the heart rate changes. We found that left ventricular myocardial oxygen consumption was the same at all 3 levels of the rate-pressure product whether heart rate was changed and pressure remained stable or pressure was changed and heart rate remained stable. Also, the correlation between oxygen consumption and the rate-pressure product was similar for both heart rate and pressure changes. During nitroprusside infusion at a fixed heart rate, oxygen extraction was significantly lower than during pacing at a heart rate of 120 beats/min when the rate-pressure product was comparable because of the direct vasodilatory effects of nitroprusside. We conclude that heart rate and aortic systolic pressure contribute equally to left ventricular myocardial oxygen consumption at the same rate-pressure product, even though there may be differences in myocardial blood flow and oxygen extraction. 相似文献

Effective vascular compliance was measured repeatedly in dogs without circulatory arrest utilizing a closed-circuit venous bypass system and constant cardiac output. Compliance, determined by the delta V/delta P relationship at the end of a 1-min infusion of 5% of the circulating volume into the inferior vena cava, was independent of the initial venous pressure, total circulating volume and systemic arterial pressure. It remained constant over a 3 h experimental period at 1.55 plus or minus 0.05 ml (mm Hg)-1-kb-1 body weight. Elevation of mean left atrial pressure and mean pulmonary arterial pressure by gradual aortic constriction was associated with a large and significant reduction in vascular compliance to a value of 1.14 plus or minus 0.06 ml (mm Hg)-1-kg-1 after 2 h. This reduction was independent of the initial venous pressure and total circulating volume but was associated with the changes in left atrial and pulmonary artery pressures and an increase in plasma catecholamine concentrations. The mechanism responsible for the reduction in effective compliance is not clear from the present experiments. Increased circulating catecholamines and sympathetic nerve traffic resulting from baro- and volume receptor stimulation in the vascular tree may be the causative mechanism. 相似文献

We examined the effect of hypothermia and rewarming on myocardial function and calcium control in Langendorff-perfused hearts from rat and guinea pig. Both rat and guinea pig hearts demonstrated a rise in myocardial calcium ([Ca]total) in response to hypothermic perfusion (40 min, 10 degrees C), which was accompanied by an increase in left ventricular end diastolic pressure (LVEDP). The elevation in [Ca]total was severalfold higher in guinea pig than in rat hearts, reaching 12.9 +/- 0.8 and 3.1 +/- 0.6 micromol.g dry wt-1, respectively. The rise in LVEDP, however, was comparable in the two species: 62.5 +/- 2.5 (guinea pig) and 52.5 +/- 5.1 mm Hg (rat). Following rewarming, [Ca]total remained elevated in guinea pig, whereas a moderate decline in [Ca]total was observed in the rat (13.6 +/- 1.9 and 2.2 +/- 0.3 micromol.g dry wt-1, respectively). Posthypothermic values of LVEDP were also significantly higher in guinea pig compared to rat hearts (42.5 +/- 6.8 vs 20.5 +/- 5.1 mm Hg, P < 0.027). Furthermore, whereas rat hearts demonstrated a 78 +/- 7% recovery of left ventricular developed pressure, there was only a 15 +/- 7% recovery in guinea pig hearts. Measurements of tissue levels of high energy phosphates and glycogen utilization indicated a higher metabolic requirement in guinea pig than in rat hearts in order to oppose the hypothermia-induced calcium load. Thus, we conclude that isolated guinea pig hearts are more sensitive to a hypothermic insult than rat hearts. 相似文献

The study was aimed at the effect of prior adaptation to short-term stress exposure on changes in K(ATP)-channel activity induced by severe stress and the dependence of the changes on the state of endothelium which plays important role in autoregulation of the coronary flow and myocardial contractility. Experiments were conducted on isolation hearts of female rats. At the first step of experiment, the heart was perfused by Krebs-Henseleit solution; at the second step, the heart was perfused with the same solution in which glibenclamide (1 microM), glibenclamide with saponin or N(omega)-nitro-L-arginine (60 microM) methyl ether was added. During the experiment, the perfusion pressure was stepwise elevated from 40 to 120 mm Hg with 20 mm intervals (coronary autoregulation). Adaptation to short-term stress prevented development of stress-specific myocardial hyperperfusion (increased volumetric velocity of coronary flow against the background of decreased myocardial contractility) and the reduction of coronary dilation reserve. In coronary vessels of adapted rats, as distinct from control rats, basal glibenclamide-sensitive functional activity of K(ATP)-channels depended on presence and functional activity of endotheliocytes; it was reduced in presence of endothelium and increased after de-endothelization or NO synthase inhibition. In all experimental groups, the increase in glibenclamide-sensitive functional activity of K(ATP)-channels induced by NO synthase inhibition more than twice as great as after the endothelium denudation. In adapted animals, stress did not decrease the functional activity of K(ATP)-channels and their activity slightly depended on presence of endotheliocytes. In addition, the elevation of their functional activity characteristic of adaptation and evident after endothelium removal has vanished. Therefore adaptation to short-term stress exposure is associated with a potential increase in basal activity of K(ATP)-channels which enhances the potency of vascular dilation system and may apparently reduce the risk of high vascular tone when such important local regulatory system as the NO system is damaged. 相似文献
