The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) has been implicated in the cardiovascular complications of diabetes. We showed that a high-fructose diet increases blood pressure and plasma angiotensin and impairs glucose tolerance. We investigated the role of angiotensin AT(1a) receptors in the development of fructose-induced cardiovascular and metabolic dysfunction. Male angiotensin AT(1a) knockout (AT1aKO) and wild-type (AT1aWT) mice with arterial telemetric catheters were fed a standard diet or one containing 60% fructose. Fructose increased mean arterial pressure (MAP) in AT1aWT but only during the dark phase (8% increase). In AT1aKO mice, fructose unexpectedly decreased MAP, during both light and dark periods (24 and 13% decrease, respectively). Analytical methods were used to measure systolic arterial pressure (SAP) and pulse interval (PI) variability in time and frequency domains. In fructose-fed AT1aWT mice, there was an increase in SAP variance and its low-frequency (LF) domain (11 +/- 3 vs. 23 +/- 4 mmHg(2), variance, and 7 +/- 2 vs. 17 +/- 3 mmHg(2), LF, control vs. fructose, P < 0.004). There were no changes in SAP variance in AT1aKO mice. Depressor responses to alpha(1)-adrenergic blockade were augmented in fructose-fed AT1a WT compared with AT1aKO mice. Fructose inhibited glucose tolerance with a greater effect in AT1aWT mice. Fructose increased plasma cholesterol in both groups (P < 0.01) and reduced ANG II in AT1aKO mice. Results document prominent interactions between genetics and diet with data showing that in the absence of angiotensin AT(1a) receptors, a fructose diet decreased blood pressure. 相似文献

We have previously shown that acute intravenous injection of the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor enalapril in diabetic rats evokes a baroreflex-independent sympathoexcitatory effect that does not occur with angiotensin receptor blockade alone. As ACE inhibition also blocks bradykinin degradation, we sought to determine whether bradykinin mediated this effect. Experiments were performed in conscious male Sprague-Dawley rats, chronically instrumented to measure mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR), and renal sympathetic nerve activity (RSNA), 2 wk after streptozotocin (55 mg/kg iv, diabetic, n = 11) or citrate vehicle (normal, n = 10). Enalapril (2.5 mg/kg iv) decreased MAP in normal rats (-15 +/- 3 mmHg), while a smaller response (-4 +/- 1 mmHg) occurred in diabetic rats. Despite these different depressor responses to enalapril, HR (+44 +/- 8 vs. +26 +/- 7 bpm) and RSNA (+90 +/- 21 vs +71 +/- 8% baseline) increased similarly between the groups (P > or = 0.22 for both). Pretreatment with the bradykinin B2 receptor antagonist Hoe 140 (10 microg/kg bolus followed by 0.8.mug(-1)kg.min(-1) infusion) attenuated the decrease in MAP observed with enalapril in normal rats but had no effect in diabetic rats. Moreover, the normal group had smaller HR and RSNA responses (HR: +13 +/- 8 bpm; RSNA: +32 +/- 13% baseline) that were abolished in the diabetic group (HR: -4 +/- 5 bpm; RSNA: -5 +/- 9% baseline; P < 0.05 vs. preenalapril values). Additionally, bradykinin (20 microg/kg iv) evoked a larger, more prolonged sympathoexcitatory effect in diabetic compared with normal rats that was further potentiated after treatment with enalapril. We conclude that enhanced bradykinin signaling mediates the baroreflex-independent sympathoexcitatory effect of enalapril in diabetic rats. 相似文献

Studies examined the role of angiotensin (ANG) AT1a receptors in cardiovascular autonomic control by measuring arterial pressure (AP) and heart rate (HR) variability and the effect of autonomic blockade in mice lacking AT1a receptors (AT1a -/-). Using radiotelemetry in conscious AT1a +/+ and AT1a -/- mice, we determined 1) AP and pulse interval (PI) variability in time and frequency (spectral analysis) domains, 2) AP response to alpha(1)-adrenergic and ganglionic blockade, and 3) intrinsic HR after ganglionic blockade. Pulsatile AP was recorded (5 kHz) for measurement of AP and PI and respective variability. Steady-state AP responses to prazosin (1 microg/g ip) and hexamethonium (30 microg/g ip) were also measured. AP was lower in AT1a -/- vs. AT1a +/+, whereas HR was not changed. Prazosin and hexamethonium produced greater decreases in mean AP in AT1a -/- than in AT1a +/+. The blood pressure difference was marked after ganglionic blockade (change in mean AP of -44 +/- 10 vs. -18 +/- 2 mmHg, AT1a -/- vs. AT1a +/+ mice). Intrinsic HR was also lower in AT1a -/- mice (431 +/- 32 vs. 524 +/- 22 beats/min, AT1a -/- vs. AT1a +/+). Beat-by-beat series of systolic AP and PI were submitted to autoregressive spectral estimation with variability quantified in low-frequency (LF: 0.1-1 Hz) and high-frequency (HF: 1-5 Hz) ranges. AT1a -/- mice showed a reduction in systolic AP LF variability (4.3 +/- 0.8 vs. 9.8 +/- 1.3 mmHg(2)), with no change in HF (2.7 +/- 0.3 vs. 3.3 +/- 0.6 mmHg(2)). There was a reduction in PI variability of AT1a -/- in both LF (18.7 +/- 3.7 vs. 32.1 +/- 4.2 ms(2)) and HF (17.7 +/- 1.9 vs. 40.3 +/- 7.3 ms(2)) ranges. The association of lower AP and PI variability in AT1a -/- mice with enhanced AP response to alpha(1)-adrenergic and ganglionic blockade suggests that removal of the ANG AT1a receptor produces autonomic imbalance. This is seen as enhanced sympathetic drive to compensate for the lack of ANG signaling. 相似文献

Hemodynamic consequences of chronic parasympathetic blockade with a peripheral muscarinic antagonist

Whereas the sympathetic nervous system has a well-established role in blood pressure (BP) regulation, it is not clear whether long-term levels of BP are affected by parasympathetic function or dysfunction. We tested the hypothesis that chronic blockade of the parasympathetic nervous system has sustained effects on BP, heart rate (HR), and BP variability (BPV). Sprague-Dawley rats were instrumented for monitoring of BP 22-h per day by telemetry and housed in metabolic cages. After the rats healed from surgery and a baseline control period, scopolamine methyl bromide (SMB), a peripheral muscarinic antagonist, was infused intravenously for 12 days. This was followed by a 10-day recovery period. SMB induced a rapid increase in mean BP from 98 +/- 2 mmHg to a peak value of 108 +/- 2 mmHg on day 2 of the SMB infusion and then stabilized at a plateau value of +3 +/- 1 mmHg above control (P < 0.05). After cessation of the infusion, the mean BP fell by 6 +/- 1 mmHg. There was an immediate elevation in HR that remained significantly above control on the last day of SMB infusion. SMB also induced a decrease in short-term (within 30-min periods) HR variability and an increase in both short-term and long-term (between 30-min periods) BPV. The data suggest that chronic peripheral muscarinic blockade leads to modest, but sustained, increases in BP, HR, and BPV, which are known risk factors for cardiovascular morbidity. 相似文献

Tempol is an amphipathic radical nitroxide (N) that acutely reduces blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR) in the spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR). We investigated the hypothesis that the response to nitroxides is determined by SOD mimetic activity or lipophilicity. Groups (n = 6-10) of anesthetized SHRs received graded intravenous doses of Ns: tempol (T), 4-amino-tempo (AT), 4-oxo-tempo (OT), 4-trimethylammonium-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl iodide (CAT-1), 3-carbamoyl-proxyl (3-CP), or 3-carboxy-proxyl (3-CTPY). Others received native or liposomal (L) Cu/Zn SOD. T and OT are uncharged, AT is positively charged and cell-permeable, and CAT-1 is positively charged and cell-impermeable. 3-CP and 3-CTPY have five-member pyrrolidine rings, whereas T, AT, OT, and CAT-1 have six-member piperidine rings. T and AT reduced mean arterial pressure (MAP) similarly (-48 +/- 2 mmHg and -55 +/- 8 mmHg) but more (P < 0.05) than OT and CAT-1. 3-CP and 3-CTPY were ineffective. The group mean change in MAP with piperidine Ns correlated with SOD activity (r = -0.94), whereas their ED(50) correlated with lipophilicity (r = 0.89). SOD and L-SOD did not lower BP acutely but reduced it after 90 min (-32 +/- 5 and -31 +/- 6 mmHg; P < 0.05 vs. vehicle). Pyrrolidine nitroxides are ineffective antihypertensive agents. The antihypertensive response to piperidine Ns is predicted by SOD mimetic action, and the sensitivity of response is by hydrophilicity. SOD exerts a delayed hypotensive action that is not enhanced by liposome encapsulation, suggesting it must diffuse to an extravascular site. 相似文献

In young adult spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR), mean arterial pressure (MAP) is higher in males than in females and inhibition of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) eliminates this sex difference. After cessation of estrous cycling in female SHR, MAP is similar to that in male SHR. The purpose of this study was to determine the role of the RAS in maintenance of hypertension in aging male and female SHR. At 16 mo of age, MAP was similar in male and female SHR (183+/-5 vs. 193+/-8 mmHg), and chronic losartan (40 mg.kg-1.day-1 po for 3 wk) reduced MAP by 52% (to 90+/-8 mmHg, P<0.05 vs. control) in males and 37% (to 123+/-11 mmHg, P<0.05 vs. control) in females (P<0.05, females vs. males). The effect of losartan on angiotensin type 1 (AT1) receptor blockade was similar: MAP responses to acute doses of ANG II (62.5-250 ng/kg) were blocked to a similar extent in losartan-treated males and females. F2-isoprostane excretion was reduced with losartan more in males than in females. There were no sex differences in plasma renin activity, plasma angiotensinogen or ANG II, or renal expression of AT1 receptors, angiotensin-converting enzyme, or renin. However, renal angiotensinogen mRNA and protein expression was higher in old males than females, whereas renal ANG II was higher in old females than males. The data show that, in aging SHR, when blood pressures are similar, there remains a sexual dimorphism in the response to AT1 receptor antagonism, and the differences may involve sex differences in mechanisms responsible for oxidative stress with aging. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to determine whether estrogen therapy enhances postexercise muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) decrease and vasodilation, resulting in a greater postexercise hypotension. Eighteen postmenopausal women received oral estrogen therapy (ET; n=9, 1 mg/day) or placebo (n=9) for 6 mo. They then participated in one 45-min exercise session (cycle ergometer at 50% of oxygen uptake peak) and one 45-min control session (seated rest) in random order. Blood pressure (BP, oscillometry), heart rate (HR), MSNA (microneurography), forearm blood flow (FBF, plethysmography), and forearm vascular resistance (FVR) were measured 60 min later. FVR was calculated. Data were analyzed using a two-way ANOVA. Although postexercise physiological responses were unaltered, HR was significantly lower in the ET group than in the placebo group (59+/-2 vs. 71+/-2 beats/min, P<0.01). In both groups, exercise produced significant decreases in systolic BP (145+/-3 vs. 154+/-3 mmHg, P=0.01), diastolic BP (71+/-3 vs. 75+/-2 mmHg, P=0.04), mean BP (89+/-2 vs. 93+/-2 mmHg, P=0.02), MSNA (29+/-2 vs. 35+/-1 bursts/min, P<0.01), and FVR (33+/-4 vs. 55+/-10 units, P=0.01), whereas it increased FBF (2.7+/-0.4 vs. 1.6+/-0.2 ml x min(-1) x 100 ml(-1), P=0.02) and did not change HR (64+/-2 vs. 65+/-2 beats/min, P=0.3). Although ET did not change postexercise BP, HR, MSNA, FBF, or FVR responses, it reduced absolute HR values at baseline and after exercise. 相似文献

This study tested whether leptin restores sympathetic-vagal balance, heart rate (HR) variability, and cardiac baroreflex sensitivity (BRS) in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetes. Sprague-Dawley rats were instrumented with arterial and venous catheters, and a cannula was placed in the lateral ventricle for intracerebroventricular (ICV) leptin infusion. Blood pressure (BP) and HR were monitored by telemetry. BRS and HR variability were estimated by linear regression between HR and BP responses to phenylephrine or sodium nitroprusside and autoregressive spectral analysis. Measurements were made during control period, 7 days after induction of diabetes, and 7 days after ICV leptin infusion. STZ diabetes was associated with hyperglycemia (422 +/- 17 mg/dl) and bradycardia (-79 +/- 4 beats/min). Leptin decreased glucose levels (165 +/- 16 mg/dl) and raised HR to control values (303 +/- 10 to 389 +/- 10 beats/min). Intrinsic HR (IHR) and chronotropic responses to a full-blocking dose of propranolol and atropine were reduced during diabetes (260 +/- 7 vs. 316 +/- 6, -19 +/- 2 vs. -43 +/- 6, and 39 +/- 3 vs. 68 +/- 8 beats/min), and leptin treatment restored these variables to normal (300 +/- 7, -68 +/- 10, and 71 +/- 8 beats/min). Leptin normalized BRS (bradycardia, -2.6 +/- 0.3, -1.7 +/- 0.2, and -3.0 +/- 0.5; and tachycardia, -3.2 +/- 0.4, -1.9 +/- 0.3, and -3.4 +/- 0.3 beats.min(-1).mmHg(-1) for control, diabetes, and leptin) and HR variability (23 +/- 4 to 11 +/- 1.5 ms2). Chronic glucose infusion to maintain hyperglycemia during leptin infusion did not alter the effect of leptin on IHR but abolished the improved BRS. These results show rapid impairment of autonomic nervous system control of HR after the induction of diabetes and that central nervous system actions of leptin can abolish the hyperglycemia as well as the altered IHR and BRS in STZ-induced diabetes. 相似文献

Plasma catecholamine concentrations (norepinephrine, NE; epinephrine, E) were measured along with heart rate (HR) and blood pressure (BP) at rest in supine (20 min) and standing (10 min) positions and in response to cycle ergometer exercise (5 min; 60% estimated maximal aerobic power) in 12 hypertensive patients before and after 20 weeks of aerobic training on cycle ergometer (six males, one female) or by jogging (five males). In a control group of labile hypertensive patients (five males, two females), estimated maximal aerobic power as well as HR and BP at rest in the supine and standing positions and in response to exercise were not modified from the first to the second evaluation (43 +/- 4 vs 43 +/- 5 ml.kg-1.min-1). In comparison estimated maximal aerobic power significantly increased in both training groups (cycle: 38 +/- 4 to 43 +/- 4; jogging: 38 +/- 3 to 46 +/- 4 ml.kg-1.min-1). However HR and BP were not modified following training, except for small reductions in systolic (18.9 to 18 kPa: 142 to 135 mmHg) and diastolic pressures (13.3 to 12 kPa: 100 to 90 mmHg) (p less than 0.05) at standing rest in the cycle group.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Sex has an important influence on blood pressure (BP) regulation. There is increasing evidence that sex hormones interfere with the renin-angiotensin system. Thus the purpose of this study was to determine whether there are sex differences in the development of ANG II-induced hypertension in conscious male and female mice. We used telemetry implants to measure aortic BP and heart rate (HR) in conscious, freely moving animals. ANG II (800 ng.kg(-1).min(-1)) was delivered via an osmotic pump implanted subcutaneously. Our results showed baseline BP in male and female mice to be similar. Chronic systemic infusion of ANG II induced a greater increase in BP in male (35.1 +/- 5.7 mmHg) than in female mice (7.2 +/- 2.0 mmHg). Gonadectomy attenuated ANG II-induced hypertension in male mice (15.2 +/- 2.4 mmHg) and augmented it in female mice (23.1 +/- 1.0 mmHg). Baseline HR was significantly higher in females relative to males (630.1 +/- 7.9 vs. 544.8 +/- 16.2 beats/min). In females, ANG II infusion significantly decreased HR. However, the increase in BP with ANG II did not result in the expected decrease in HR in either intact male or gonadectomized mice. Moreover, the slope of the baroreflex bradycardia to phenylephrine was blunted in males (-5.6 +/- 0.3 to -2.9 +/- 0.5) but not in females (-6.5 +/- 0.5 to -5.6 +/- 0.3) during infusion of ANG II, suggesting that, in male mice, infusion of ANG II results in a resetting of the baroreflex control of HR. Ganglionic blockade resulted in greater reduction in BP on day 7 after ANG II infusion in males compared with females (-61.0 +/- 8.9 vs. -36.6 +/- 6.6 mmHg), suggesting an increased contribution of sympathetic nerve activity in arterial BP maintenance in male mice. Together, these data indicate that there are sex differences in the development of chronic ANG II-induced hypertension in conscious mice and that females may be protected from the increases in BP induced by ANG II. 相似文献

The JAK/STAT pathway is activated in vitro by angiotensin II (ANG II) and endothelin-1 (ET-1), which are implicated in the development of diabetic complications. We hypothesized that ANG II and ET-1 activate the JAK/STAT pathway in vivo to participate in the development of diabetic vascular complications. Using male Sprague-Dawley rats, we performed a time course study [days 7, 14, and 28 after streptozotocin (STZ) injection] to determine changes in phosphorylation of JAK2, STAT1, and STAT3 in thoracic aorta using standard Western blot techniques. On day 7 there was no change in phosphorylation of JAK2, STAT1, and STAT3. Phosphorylation of JAK2, STAT1, and STAT3 was significantly increased on days 14 and 28 and was inhibited by treatment with candesartan (AT(1) receptor antagonist, 10 mg x kg(-1) x day(-1) orally in drinking water), atrasentan (ET(A) receptor antagonist, 10 mg x kg(-1) x day(-1) orally in drinking water), and AG-490 (JAK2 inhibitor, 5 mg x kg(-1) x day(-1) intraperitoneally). On day 28, treatment with all inhibitors prevented the significant increase in systolic blood pressure (SBP; tail cuff) of STZ-induced diabetic rats (SBP: 157 +/- 9.0, 130 +/- 3.3, 128 +/- 6.8, and 131 +/- 10.4 mmHg in STZ, STZ-candesartan, STZ-atrasentan, and STZ-AG-490 rats, respectively). In isolated tissue bath studies, diabetic rats displayed impaired endothelium-dependent relaxation in aorta (maximal relaxation: 95.3 +/- 3.0, 92.6 +/- 7.4, 76.9 +/- 12.1, and 38.3 +/- 13.1% in sham, sham + AG-490, STZ + AG-490, and STZ rats, respectively). Treatment of rats with AG-490 restored endothelium-dependent relaxation in aorta from diabetic rats at 14 and 28 days of treatment. These results demonstrate that JAK2 activation in vivo participates in the development of vascular complications associated with STZ-induced diabetes. 相似文献

We investigated the effect of muscle metaboreflex activation on left circumflex coronary blood flow (CBF) and vascular conductance (CVC) in conscious, chronically instrumented dogs during treadmill exercise ranging from mild to severe workloads. Metaboreflex responses were also observed during mild exercise with constant heart rate (HR) of 225 beats/min and beta(1)-adrenergic receptor blockade to attenuate the substantial reflex increases in cardiac work. The muscle metaboreflex was activated via graded partial occlusion of hindlimb blood flow. During mild exercise, with muscle metaboreflex activation, hindlimb ischemia elicited significant reflex increases in mean arterial pressure (MAP), HR, and cardiac output (CO) (+39.0 +/- 5.2 mmHg, +29.9 +/- 7.7 beats/min, and +2.0 +/- 0.4 l/min, respectively; all changes, P < 0.05). CBF increased from 51.9 +/- 4.3 to 88.5 +/- 6.6 ml/min, (P < 0.05), whereas no significant change in CVC occurred (0.56 +/- 0.06 vs. 0.59 +/- 0.05 ml. min(-1). mmHg(-1); P > 0.05). Similar responses were observed during moderate exercise. In contrast, with metaboreflex activation during severe exercise, no further increases in CO or HR occurred, the increases in MAP and CBF were attenuated, and a significant reduction in CVC was observed (1.00 +/- 0.12 vs. 0.90 +/- 0.13 ml. min(-1). mmHg(-1); P < 0.05). Similarly, when the metaboreflex was activated during mild exercise with the rise in cardiac work lessened (via constant HR and beta(1)-blockade), no increase in CO occurred, the MAP and CBF responses were attenuated (+15.6 +/- 4.5 mmHg, +8.3 +/- 2 ml/min), and CVC significantly decreased from 0.63 +/- 0.11 to 0.53 +/- 0.10 ml. min(-1). mmHg(-1). We conclude that the muscle metaboreflex induced increases in sympathetic nerve activity to the heart functionally vasoconstricts the coronary vasculature. 相似文献

Oxytocin (OT) has been implicated in the cardiovascular responses to exercise, stress, and baroreflex adjustments. Studies were conducted to determine the effect of genetic manipulation of the OT gene on blood pressure (BP), heart rate (HR), and autonomic/baroreflex function. OT knockout (OTKO -/-) and control +/+ mice were prepared with chronic arterial catheters. OTKO -/- mice exhibited a mild hypotension (102 +/- 3 vs. 110 +/- 3 mmHg). Sympathetic and vagal tone were tested using beta(1)-adrenergic and cholinergic blockade (atenolol and atropine). Magnitude of sympathetic and vagal tone to the heart and periphery was not significantly different between groups. However, there was an upward shift of sympathetic tone to higher HR values in OTKO -/- mice. This displacement combined with unchanged basal HR led to larger responses to cholinergic blockade (+77 +/- 25 vs. +5 +/- 15 beats/min, OTKO -/- vs. control +/+ group). There was also an increase in baroreflex gain (-13.1 +/- 2.5 vs. -4.1 +/- 1.2 beats x min(-1) x mmHg(-1), OTKO -/- vs. control +/+ group) over a smaller BP range. Results show that OTKO -/- mice are characterized by 1) hypotension, suggesting that OT is involved in tonic BP maintenance; 2) enhanced baroreflex gain over a small BP range, suggesting that OT extends the functional range of arterial baroreceptor reflex; and 3) shift in autonomic balance, indicating that OT reduces the sympathetic reserve. 相似文献

We tested the hypothesis that hypotension occurred in older adults at the onset of orthostatic challenge as a result of vagal dysfunction. Responses of heart rate (HR) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) were compared between 10 healthy older and younger adults during onset and sustained lower body negative pressure (LBNP). A younger group was also assessed after blockade of the parasympathetic nervous system with the use of atropine or glycopyrrolate and after blockade of the beta(1)-adrenoceptor by use of metoprolol. Baseline HR (older vs. younger: 59 +/- 4 vs. 54 +/- 1 beats/min) and MAP (83 +/- 2 vs. 89 +/- 3 mmHg) were not significantly different between the groups. During -40 Torr, significant tachycardia occurred at the first HR response in the younger subjects without hypotension, whereas significant hypotension [change in MAP (DeltaMAP) -7 +/- 2 mmHg] was observed in the elderly without tachycardia. After the parasympathetic blockade, tachycardiac responses of younger subjects were diminished and associated with a significant hypotension at the onset of LBNP. However, MAP was not affected after the cardiac sympathetic blockade. We concluded that the elderly experienced orthostatic hypotension at the onset of orthostatic challenge because of a diminished HR response. However, an augmented vasoconstriction helped with the maintenance of their blood pressure during sustained LBNP. 相似文献

The chronotropic responses to angiotensins I and II (5 micrograms in 1 mL Tyrode's solution) injected into the sinus node artery were assessed before and after the intravenous administration of captopril (2 mg/kg) and saralasin (20 micrograms/kg) in anaesthetized dogs. The effects of angiotensin II given intravenously were also observed. The animals (n = 8) were vagotomized and pretreated with propranolol (1 mg/kg, i.v.) to prevent baroreceptor-mediated responses to increases in blood pressure. Injection of angiotensin I into the sinus node artery induced significant increases in heart rate (114 +/- 6 vs. 133 +/- 6 beats/min) and in systemic systolic (134 +/- 13 vs. 157 +/- 14 mmHg; 1 mmHg = 133.3 Pa) and diastolic (95 +/- 10 vs. 126 +/- 13 mmHg) blood pressures. Similar results were obtained when angiotensin II was injected into the sinus node artery, but intravenous injection induced changes in systolic (138 +/- 8 vs. 180 +/- 25 mmHg) and diastolic (103 +/- 8 vs. 145 +/- 20 mmHg) blood pressures only. Captopril induced a significant decrease in systolic (118 +/- 11 vs. 88 +/- 12 mmHg) and diastolic (84 +/- 9 vs. 59 +/- 9 mmHg) blood pressures without affecting the heart rate (109 +/- 6 vs. 106 +/- 6 beats/min). Saralasin produced a significant increase in systolic (109 +/- 7 vs. 126 +/- 12 mmHg) blood pressure only. Increments in heart rate and systolic and diastolic blood pressures in response to angiotensins I and II were, respectively, abolished by captopril and saralasin. It was concluded that angiotensin II has, in vivo, a direct positive chronotropic effect that can be blocked by saralasin.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Angiotensin (ANG) II activating type 1 receptors (AT(1)Rs) enhances superoxide anion (O(2)*(-)) and arachidonate (AA) formation. AA is metabolized by cyclooxygenases (COXs) to PGH(2), which is metabolized by thromboxane (Tx)A(2) synthase to TxA(2) or oxidized to 8-isoprostane PGF(2alpha) (8-Iso) by O(2)*(-). PGH(2), TxA(2), and 8-Iso activate thromboxane-prostanoid receptors (TPRs). We investigated whether blood pressure in a rat model of early (3 wk) two-kidney, one-clip (2K,1C) Goldblatt hypertension is maintained by AT(1)Rs or AT(2)Rs, driving COX-1 or -2-dependent products that activate TPRs. Compared with sham-operated rats, 2K,1C Goldblatt rats had increased mean arterial pressure (MAP; 120 +/- 4 vs. 155 +/- 3 mmHg; P < 0.001), plasma renin activity (PRA; 22 +/- 7 vs. 48 +/- 5 ng x ml(-1) x h(-1); P < 0.01), plasma malondialdehyde (1.07 +/- 0.05 vs. 1.58 +/- 0.16 nmol/l; P < 0.01), and TxB(2) excretion (26 +/- 4 vs. 51 +/- 7 ng/24 h; P < 0.01). Acute graded intravenous doses of benazeprilat (angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor) reduced MAP at 20 min (-36 +/- 5 mmHg; P < 0.001) and excretion of TxA(2) metabolites. Indomethacin (nonselective COX antagonist) or SC-560 (COX-1 antagonist) reduced MAP at 20 min (-25 +/- 5 and -28 +/- 7 mmHg; P < 0.001), whereas valdecoxib (COX-2 antagonist) was ineffective (-9 +/- 5 mmHg; not significant). Losartan (AT(1)R antagonist) or SQ-29548 (TPR antagonist) reduced MAP at 150 min (-24 +/- 6 and -22 +/- 3 mmHg; P < 0.001), whereas PD-123319 (AT(2)R antagonist) was ineffective. Acute blockade of TPRs, COX-1, or COX-2 did not change PRA, but TxB(2) generation by the clipped kidney was reduced by blockade of COX-1 and increased by blockade of COX-2. 2K,1C hypertension in rats activates renin, O(2)*(-), and vasoconstrictor PGs. Hypertension is maintained by AT(1)Rs and by COX-1, but not COX-2, products that activate TPRs. 相似文献

We aimed to investigate the interaction between the arterial baroreflex and muscle metaboreflex [as reflected by alterations in the dynamic responses shown by leg blood flow (LBF: by the ultrasound Doppler method), leg vascular conductance (LVC), mean arterial blood pressure (MAP), and heart rate (HR)] in humans. In 12 healthy subjects (10 men and 2 women), who performed sustained 1-min handgrip exercise at 50% maximal voluntary contraction followed immediately by an imposed postexercise muscle ischemia (PEMI), 5-s periods of neck pressure (NP; 50 mmHg) or neck suction (NS; -60 mmHg) were used to evaluate carotid baroreflex function both at rest (Con) and during PEMI. First, the decreases in LVC and LBF and the augmentation of MAP elicited by NP were all greater during PEMI than in Con (DeltaLVC, -1.2 +/- 0.2 vs. -1.9 +/- 0.2 ml.min(-1).mmHg(-1); DeltaLBF, -97.3 +/- 11.2 vs. -177.0 +/- 21.8 ml/min; DeltaMAP, 6.7 +/- 1.2 vs. 11.5 +/- 1.4 mmHg, Con vs. PEMI; each P < 0.05). Second, in Con, NS significantly increased both LVC and LBF (DeltaLVC, 0.9 +/- 0.2 ml.min(-1).mmHg(-1); DeltaLBF, 46.6 +/- 9.8 ml/min; significant change from baseline: each P < 0.05), and, whereas during PEMI no significant increases in LVC and LBF occurred during NS itself (DeltaLVC, 0.2 +/- 0.1 ml.min(-1).mmHg(-1); DeltaLBF, 10.8 +/- 9.6 ml/min; each P > 0.05), a decrease was evident in each parameters at 5 s after the cessation of NS. Third, during PEMI, the decrease in MAP elicited by NS was smaller (DeltaMAP, -8.4 +/- 1.0 vs. -5.8 +/- 0.4 mmHg, Con vs. PEMI; P < 0.05), and it recovered to its initial level more quickly after NS (vs. Con). Finally, however, the HR responses to NS and NP were not different between PEMI and Con. These results suggest that during muscle metaboreflex activation in humans, the arterial baroreflex dynamic effect on peripheral vascular conductance is modulated, as exemplified by 1) an augmentation of the NP-induced LVC decrease, and 2) a loss of the NS-induced LVC increase. 相似文献

We determined the effect of microinjection of ANG-(1-7) and ANG II into two key regions of the medulla that control the circulation [rostral and caudal ventrolateral medulla (RVLM and CVLM, respectively)] on baroreflex control of heart rate (HR) in anesthetized rats. Reflex bradycardia and tachycardia were induced by increases and decreases in mean arterial pressure produced by intravenous phenylephrine and sodium nitroprusside, respectively. The pressor effects of ANG-(1-7) and ANG II (25 pmol) after RVLM microinjection (11 +/- 0.8 and 10 +/- 2 mmHg, respectively) were not accompanied by consistent changes in HR. In addition, RVLM microinjection of these angiotensin peptides did not alter the bradycardic or tachycardic component of the baroreflex. CVLM microinjections of ANG-(1-7) and ANG II produced hypotension (-11 +/- 1.5 and -11 +/- 1.9 mmHg, respectively) that was similarly not accompanied by significant changes in HR. However, CVLM microinjections of angiotensins induced differential changes in the baroreflex control of HR. ANG-(1-7) attenuated the baroreflex bradycardia (0.26 +/- 0.06 ms/mmHg vs. 0.42 +/- 0.08 ms/mmHg before treatment) and facilitated the baroreflex tachycardia (0.86 +/- 0.19 ms/mmHg vs. 0.42 +/- 0.10 ms/mmHg before treatment); ANG II produced the opposite effect, attenuating baroreflex tachycardia (0.09 +/- 0.06 ms/mmHg vs. 0.31 +/- 0.07 ms/mmHg before treatment) and facilitating the baroreflex bradycardia (0.67 +/- 0.16 ms/mmHg vs. 0.41 +/- 0.05 ms/mmHg before treatment). The modulatory effect of ANG II and ANG-(1-7) on baroreflex sensitivity was completely abolished by peripheral administration of methylatropine. These results suggest that ANG II and ANG-(1-7) at the CVLM produce a differential modulation of the baroreflex control of HR, probably through distinct effects on the parasympathetic drive to the heart. 相似文献

Recent studies have shown that angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors attenuate endothelin-1 (ET-1)-induced hypertension, but the mechanisms for this effect have not been clarified. Initial experiments were conducted to contrast the effect of the ACE inhibitor enalapril, the combined ACE-neutral endopeptidase inhibitor omapatrilat, and the angiotensin II receptor antagonist candesartan on the hypertensive and renal response to ET-1 in anesthetized Sprague-Dawley rats. Acute intravenous infusion of ET-1 (10 pmol x kg(-1) x min(-1)) for 60 min significantly increased mean arterial pressure (MAP) from 125 +/- 8 to 145 +/- 8 mmHg (P < 0.05) and significantly decreased glomerular filtration rate (GFR) from 0.31 +/- 0.09 to 0.13 +/- 0.05 ml x min(-1) x 100 g kidney wt(-1). Pretreatment with enalapril (10 mg/kg iv) before ET-1 infusion inhibited the increase in MAP (121 +/- 4 vs. 126 +/- 4 mmHg) before and during ET-1 infusion, respectively (P < 0.05) without blocking the effect of ET-1 on GFR. In contrast, neither omapatrilat (30 mg/kg) nor candesartan (10 mg/kg) had any effect on ET-1-induced increases in MAP or decreases in GFR. To determine whether the effect of enalapril was due to the decrease in angiotensin II or increase in kinin formation, rats were given REF-000359 (1 mg/kg iv), a selective B(2) receptor antagonist, with or without enalapril before ET-1 infusion. REF-000359 completely blocked the effect of enalapril on ET-1 infusion (MAP was 117 +/- 5 vs. 135 +/- 5 mmHg before and during ET-1 infusion, respectively, P < 0.05). REF-000359 alone had no effect on the response to ET-1 infusion (MAP was 117 +/- 4 vs. 144 +/- 4 mmHg before and during ET-1 infusion, respectively, P < 0.05). REF-000359 with or without enalapril had no significant effect on the ability of ET-1 infusion to decrease GFR. These findings support the hypothesis that decreased catabolism of bradykinin and its subsequent vasodilator activity oppose the actions of ET-1 to increase MAP. 相似文献

We determined whether nitric oxide (NO) counters the development of hypertension at the onset of diabetes in mice, whether this is dependent on endothelial NO synthase (eNOS), and whether non-NO endothelium-dependent vasodilator mechanisms are altered in diabetes in mice. Male mice were instrumented for chronic measurement of mean arterial pressure (MAP). In wild-type mice, MAP was greater after 5 wk of N(omega)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME; 100 mg x kg(-1) x day(-1) in drinking water; 97 +/- 3 mmHg) than after vehicle treatment (88 +/- 3 mmHg). MAP was also elevated in eNOS null mice (113 +/- 4 mmHg). Seven days after streptozotocin treatment (200 mg/kg iv) MAP was further increased in L-NAME-treated mice (108 +/- 5 mmHg) but not in vehicle-treated mice (88 +/- 3 mmHg) nor eNOS null mice (104 +/- 3 mmHg). In wild-type mice, maximal vasorelaxation of mesenteric arteries to acetylcholine was not altered by chronic L-NAME or induction of diabetes but was reduced by 42 +/- 6% in L-NAME-treated diabetic mice. Furthermore, the relative roles of NO and endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor (EDHF) in acetylcholine-induced vasorelaxation were altered; the EDHF component was enhanced by L-NAME and blunted by diabetes. These data suggest that NO protects against the development of hypertension during early-stage diabetes in mice, even in the absence of eNOS. Furthermore, in mesenteric arteries, diabetes is associated with reduced EDHF function, with an apparent compensatory increase in NO function. Thus, prior inhibition of NOS results in endothelial dysfunction in early diabetes, since the diabetes-induced reduction in EDHF function cannot be compensated by increases in NO production. 相似文献
