Hypothermia, as well as anesthesia, are known to protect the brain against ischemia, hypoxia and other pathological damages. One of the mechanisms of this improvement could be by lowering brain function, and thereby lowering oxygen demand. We examined the effect of hypothermia on brain function and blood supply in awake and anesthetized rats and studied the interaction between partial ischemia and the responses to hypothermia. The brain function multiprobe (BFM) used enabled simultaneous measurements of cerebral blood flow (CBF), mitochondrial NADH redox state, extracellular K(+) concentration, DC potential and ECoG from the cerebral cortex in rats whose brain temperature was lowered by 5 degrees C. Hypothermia was induced in awake, anesthetized and brain ischemic-anesthetized rats. In anesthetized and ischemic-anesthetized rats, the time required for lowering the brain temperature by 5 degrees C was five times less than in the normal awake animals. No significant changes in CBF and NADH levels were found in response to hypothermia in the awake animals. In contrast, a significant decrease in extracellular K(+) concentration was recorded under hypothermia, probably due to the lower rate of depolarization. Hypothermia in anesthetized and in ischemic-anesthetized rats did not significantly affect the levels of mitochondrial NADH, CBF and extracellular K(+). Hypothermia under ischemia was expected to be more effective. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of vascular and central alpha-adrenoceptor blockade on cerebral blood flow (CBF) and utilization of brain arteriolar and capillary reserve in conscious rats during normoxia and hypoxia (8% O2 in N2). Animals were divided into three groups and administered either saline, N-methyl chlorpromazine (does not cross the blood-brain barrier), or phenoxybenzamine (crosses the blood-brain barrier) in equipotent doses. Neither agent affected regional CBF and the utilization of brain microvascular reserve during normoxia. CBF increased from 70.9 +/- 2.9 (SEM) ml/min/100 g in the control normoxic group to 123.8 +/- 4.2 ml/min/100 g in control hypoxic animals. In control, hypoxic flow to pons and medulla of the brain was higher than to cortex, hypothalamus or thalamus. The percent of arterioles/mm2 perfused increased from 49.6 +/- 2.0% during control normoxia to 65.6 +/- 3.0% during control hypoxia. The percentage of capillaries/mm2 perfused changed similarly. Hypoxic CBF was increased similarly after administration of N-methyl chlorpromazine or phenoxybenzamine. Administration of N-methyl chlorpromazine or phenoxybenzamine eliminated regional differences in hypoxic CBF and the utilization of arterioles, and did not affect capillary response. There was no difference between the effect of N-methyl chlorpromazine and phenoxybenzamine on cerebral microvascular and blood flow responses to hypoxia. It was concluded that peripheral alpha-adrenoceptors affect the distribution of regional microvascular and blood flow responses to hypoxia, and central alpha-adrenoceptors probably do not participate in this effect. 相似文献

Acetazolamide (AZ), a potent carbonic anhydrase inhibitor in human and animal tissues, increases cerebral blood flow (CBF) by acidifying cerebral extracellular fluids. To demonstrate the relationship of increased CBF to brain O2 availability after AZ administration, a compensated fluorometer was used to study changes in the cerebrocortical redox balance in rabbits. Seven rabbits were anesthetized with pentobarbital sodium. Excitation light (366 nm) was conducted to the cerebrocortical surface of each animal by a 4-mm-diam fiberoptic light guide. Fluorescence emissions from cerebrocortical NADH (450 nm) were compared at different inspired O2 (FIO2) tensions. Reflected light (366 nm), which was used to determine a correction to the fluorescence signal, was separately quantitated and interpreted as an index of cerebrocortical blood volume. Reductions in FIO2 from 1.0 to 0.21, 0.14, 0.10, and 0.07 resulted in increases in both tissue blood volume and [NADH]. Intravenous AZ (25 mg/kg) increased cerebrocortical blood volume and reduced the [NADH], even during ventilation with 100% O2. The changes in brain redox balance caused by vasodilation with AZ were compared with those caused by vasodilatation with CO2. The NAD+/NADH redox state was a continuous function of FIO2 at all levels of arterial PCO2 (PaCO2), both before and after AZ administration. The improvement in cerebral O2 delivery caused by AZ-induced vasodilation was comparable to that caused by the vasodilatation that results from a PaCO2 elevation approximately equal to 12-15 Torr above normal. The slope of the relationship between [NADH] and FIO2 was similar at normal, low, and high levels of PaCO2. We conclude that AZ administration and PaCO2 elevation improve cerebral oxygenation by similar mechanisms. 相似文献

Cerebral vasodilation in hypoxia may involve endothelium-derived relaxing factor-nitric oxide (NO). An inhibitor of NO formation, N omega-nitro-L-arginine (LNA, 100 micrograms/kg i.v.), was given to conscious sheep (n = 6) during normoxia and again in hypocapnic hypoxia (arterial PO2 approximately 38 Torr). Blood samples were obtained from the aorta and sagittal sinus, and cerebral blood flow (CBF) was measured with 15-microns radiolabeled microspheres. During normoxia, LNA elevated (P < 0.05) mean arterial pressure from 82 +/- 3 to 88 +/- 2 (SE) mmHg and cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP) from 72 +/- 3 to 79 +/- 3 mmHg, CBF was unchanged, and cerebral lactate release (CLR) rose temporarily from 0.0 +/- 1.9 to 13.3 +/- 8.7 mumol.min-1 x 100 g-1 (P < 0.05). The glucose-O2 index declined (P < 0.05) from 1.67 +/- 0.16 to 1.03 +/- 0.4 mumol.min-1 x 100 g-1. Hypoxia increased CBF from 59.9 +/- 5.4 to 122.5 +/- 17.5 ml.min-1 x 100 g-1 and the glucose-O2 index from 1.75 +/- 0.43 to 2.49 +/- 0.52 mumol.min-1 x 100 g-1 and decreased brain CO2 output, brain respiratory quotient, and CPP (all P < 0.05), while cerebral O2 uptake, CLR, and CPP were unchanged. LNA given during hypoxia decreased CBF to 77.7 +/- 11.8 ml.min-1 x 100 g-1 and cerebral O2 uptake from 154 +/- 22 to 105.2 +/- 12.4 mumol.min-1 x 100 g-1 and further elevated mean arterial pressure to 98 +/- 2 mmHg (all P < 0.05), CLR was unchanged, and, surprisingly, brain CO2 output and respiratory quotient were reduced dramatically to negative values (P < 0.05).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Nitric oxide (NO) plays a pivotal role in the regulation of peripheral vascular tone. Its role in the regulation of cerebral vascular tone in humans remains to be elucidated. This study investigates the role of NO in hypoxia-induced cerebral vasodilatation in young healthy volunteers. The effect of the NO synthase inhibitor N(G)-monomethyl-L-arginine (L-NMMA) on the cerebral blood flow (CBF) was assessed during normoxia and during hypoxia (peripheral O(2) saturation 97 and 80%, respectively). Subjects were positioned in a magnetic resonance scanner, breathing normal air (normoxia) or a N(2)-O(2) mixture (hypoxia). The CBF was measured before and after administration of L-NMMA (3 mg/kg) by use of phase-contrast magnetic resonance imaging techniques. Administration of L-NMMA during normoxia did not affect CBF. Hypoxia increased CBF from 1,049 +/- 113 to 1,209 +/- 143 ml/min (P < 0.05). After L-NMMA administration, the augmented CBF returned to baseline (1,050 +/- 161 ml/min; P < 0.05). Similarly, cerebral vascular resistance declined during hypoxia and returned to baseline after administration of L-NMMA (P < 0.05 for both). Use of phase-contrast magnetic resonance imaging shows that hypoxia-induced cerebral vasodilatation in humans is mediated by NO. 相似文献

Oxidation changes of the copper A (Cu(A)) center of cytochrome oxidase in the brain were measured during brief anoxic swings at both normocapnia and hypercapnia (arterial PCO(2) approximately 55 mmHg). Hypercapnia increased total hemoglobin from 37.5 +/- 9.1 to 50.8 +/- 12.9 micromol/l (means +/- SD; n = 7), increased mean cerebral saturation (Smc(O(2))) from 65 +/- 4 to 77 +/- 3%, and oxidized Cu(A) by 0.43 +/- 0.23 micromol/l. During the onset of anoxia, there were no significant changes in the Cu(A) oxidation state until Smc(O(2)) had fallen to 43 +/- 5 and 21 +/- 6% at normocapnia and hypercapnia, respectively, and the maximum reduction during anoxia was not significantly different at hypercapnia (1.49 +/- 0.40 micromol/l) compared with normocapnia (1.53 +/- 0.44 micromol/l). Residuals of the least squares fitting algorithm used to convert near-infrared spectra to concentrations are presented and shown to be small compared with the component of attenuation attributed to the Cu(A) signal. From these observations, we conclude that there is minimal interference between the hemoglobin and Cu(A) signals in this model, the Cu(A) oxidation state is independent of cerebral oxygenation at normoxia, and the oxidation after hypercapnia is not the result of increased cerebral oxygenation. 相似文献

We designed the present study to see whether, during acute moderate isocapnic hypoxemia, changes in cerebral vascular resistance (CVR) and brain extracellular fluid (ECF) [H+] can or cannot be dissociated from each other. In seven anesthetized and paralyzed dogs we measured brain ECF pH with surface electrodes (n = 4) or double-barreled microelectrodes (n = 3) with tip diameters of less than 30 micron inserted 5 mm below the surface. Cerebral blood flow (CBF) was measured by radioactive microspheres during normoxemia and moderate hypoxemia, whereas brain ECF pH was measured continuously. In six of the seven dogs brain pH did not change during moderate hypoxemia of 4-20 min duration. In these six animals the mean arterial O2 partial pressure decreased from 84.8 +/- 12.9 (SD) to 46.7 +/- 10.2 Torr during hypoxic gas breathing, resulting in a significant drop in CVR from 3.88 +/- 1.88 to 3.27 +/- 1.97 Torr X ml-1 X min X 100 g and a rise in CBF from 31.7 +/- 12.7 to 47.8 +/- 31.5 ml X min-1 X 100 g-1. The mean brain ECF [H+] was 57.4 +/- 8.2 nmol/l (pH = 7.24) during normoxemia and did not change significantly during hypoxic gas breathing [56.6 +/- 7.7 nmol/l (pH = 7.25)]. Furthermore, arterial and sagittal venous blood and cisternal cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pH did not change significantly during hypoxic gas breathing. We conclude that during acute moderate hypoxemia reduction in CVR can occur independently from increases in brain ECF, cisternal CSF, and arterial and sagittal venous blood [H+] and PCO2. 相似文献

Cerebral blood flow (CBF) is lowered during polycythemia. Whether this fall is due to an increase in red blood cell concentration (Hct) or to an increase in arterial O2 content (Cao2) is controversial. We examined the independent effects of Hct and Cao2 on CBF as Hct was raised from 30 to 55% in anesthetized 1- to 7-day-old sheep. CBF was measured by the radiolabeled microsphere technique before and after isovolemic exchange transfusion with either oxyhemoglobin-containing erythrocytes (in 5 control animals) or with methemoglobin-containing erythrocytes (in 9 experimental animals). Following exchange transfusion in the control animals, Hct rose (30 +/- 1 vs. 55 +/- 1%, mean +/- SE), Cao2 increased (15.1 +/- 0.8 vs. 26.7 +/- 0.9 vol%), and CBF fell (66 +/- 9 vs. 35 +/- 5 ml X min-1 X 100 g-1). Because the fall in CBF was proportionate to the rise in Cao2, cerebral O2 transport (CBF X Cao2) was unchanged. Following exchange transfusion in the experimental animals, Hct rose (32 +/- 1 vs. 55 +/- 1%) but Cao2 did not change. Nevertheless, CBF still fell (73 +/- 4 vs. 48 +/- 2 ml X min-1 X 100 g-1) and, as a result, cerebral O2 transport also fell. The latter cannot be attributed to a fall in cerebral O2 uptake, as cerebral O2 uptake was unaffected during each of these conditions. Comparison of the two groups of animals showed that approximately 60% of the fall in CBF may be attributed to the increase in red cell concentration alone. It is probable that this effect is due largely to changes in blood viscosity. 相似文献

The changes in intracellular oxygen tension and energy metabolism of the cat brain cortex were studied by surface fluororeflectometry during haemorrhagic shock. The results may be summarized as follows. (a) Intracellular oxygen tension, i.e. the maximum cortical NAD reduction obtained during nitrogen gas inhalation decreased gradually during the hypovolaemic phase of shock and finally, the brain cortex became ischaemic. (b) Partial uncoupling of the cerebrocortical mitochondrial respiration and oxidative phosphorylation appeared in the very early period of bleeding, as indicated by the overshot of the cortical NAD/NADH redox state towards oxidation subsequent to the cessation of nitrogen gas inhalation. Partial uncoupling of mitochondrial respiration and oxidative phosphorylation became more pronounced during the later phases of bleeding, finally, the mitochondrial electron transport stopped. In line with these changes the frequency and the amplitude of ECoG decreased gradually and markedly during the hypovolaemic phase of shock. (c) Microcirculation and energy metabolism of the cat brain cortex were severely and irreversibly damaged during the hypovolaemic phase of shock. This was clearly shown by the fact that in the majority of experiments the nitrogen anoxia after reinfusion failed to bring about changes in the cortical NAD/NADH redox state and the ECoG changes occurred during bleeding did not improve after reinfusion. It is concluded that the early disturbances of cerebrocortical energy metabolism play an important role in the development of neural and vascular lesions of the brain that occur during haemorrhagic shock. 相似文献

To determine the dependence of cerebral blood flow (CBF) on arterial pressure over prolonged time periods, we measured beat-to-beat changes in mean CBF velocity in the middle cerebral artery (transcranial Doppler) and mean arterial pressure (Finapres) continuously for 2 h in six healthy subjects (5 men and 1 woman, 18-40 yr old) during supine rest. Fluctuations in velocity and pressure were quantified by the range [(peak - trough)/mean] and coefficients of variation (SD/mean) in the time domain and by spectral analysis in the frequency domain. Mean velocity and pressure over the 2-h recordings were 60 +/- 7 cm/s and 83 +/- 8 mmHg, associated with ranges of 77 +/- 8 and 89 +/- 10% and coefficients of variation of 9.3 +/- 2.2 and 7.9 +/- 2.3%, respectively. Spectral power of the velocity and pressure was predominantly distributed in the frequency range of 0.00014-0.1 Hz and increased inversely with frequency, indicating characteristics of an inverse power law (1/f(alpha)). However, linear regression on a log-log scale revealed that the slope of spectral power of pressure and velocity was steeper in the high-frequency (0.02-0.5 Hz) than in the low-frequency range (0.002-0.02 Hz), suggesting different regulatory mechanisms in these two frequency ranges. Furthermore, the spectral slope of pressure was significantly steeper than that of velocity in the low-frequency range, consistent with the low transfer function gain and low coherence estimated at these frequencies. We conclude that 1) long-term fluctuations in CBF velocity are prominent and similar to those observed in arterial pressure, 2) spectral power of CBF velocity reveals characteristics of 1/f(alpha), and 3) cerebral attenuation of oscillations in CBF velocity in response to changes in pressure may be more effective at low than that at high frequencies, emphasizing the frequency dependence of cerebral autoregulation. 相似文献

Glutamate stimulates resting ventilation by altering neural excitability centrally. Hypoxia increases central ventilatory drive through peripheral chemoreceptor stimulation and may also alter cerebral perfusion and glutamate metabolism locally. Therefore the effect of hypoxia and peripheral chemodenervation on cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) transfer rate of in vivo tracer amidated central nervous system glutamate was studied in intact and chemodenervated pentobarbital-anesthetized dogs during normoxia and after 1 h of hypoxia induced with 10 or 12% O2 in N2 breathing at constant expired ventilation and arterial CO2 tension. Chemodenervation was performed by bilateral sectioning of the carotid body nerves and cervical vagi. CSF transfer rates of radiotracer 13NH4+ and [13N]glutamine synthesized via the reaction, glutamate + NH4(+)----glutamine, in brain glia were measured during normoxia and after 1 h of hypoxia. At normoxia, maximal glial glutamine efflux rate jm = 103.3 +/- 11.2 (SE) mumol.l-1.min-1 in all animals. After 1 h of hypoxia in intact animals, jm = 78.4 +/- 10.0 mumol.l-1.min-1. In denervated animals, jm was decreased to 46.3 +/- 4.3 mumol.l-1.min-1. During hypoxia, mean cerebral cortical glutamate concentration was higher in denervated animals (9.98 +/- 1.43 mumol/g brain tissue) than in intact animals (7.63 +/- 1.82 mumol/g brain tissue) and corresponding medullary glutamate concentration tended to be higher in denervated animals. There were no differences between mean glutamine and gamma-aminobutyric acid concentrations.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The goal of work was to reveal changes in microcirculation of the rat brain and the role of nitric oxide (NO) in development of seizures at hyperbaric oxygen exposure. The Wistar rats with implanted paired platinum electrodes in left and right striatum were used for experiments. The latency of seizures was defined by the EEG, the cerebral blood flow (CBF) was measured by hydrogen clearance. One group of animals was exposed to a 5-ata oxygen, while the others before oxygen treatment were injected with: Nw-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME), blockator of constitutive NO synthase; 7-nitroindozol (7NI), specific inhibitor of neural NO synthase. The latency of seizures was 41 +/- 1.9 min at 5 ata oxygen exposure. CBF was decreased to 10-14% but before seizures it increased to 23 +/- 9%. L-NAME and 7NI prevented development of hyperoxygen hyperemia and onset of seizures. The results indicate occurrence of hyperbaric oxygen changes of the CBF that modulate neurotoxic effects of NO in neurons as well as in cerebral vessels. 相似文献

Heat shock proteins (HSPs) may play a cardioprotective role during hypoxia or ischemia. We hypothesized that cardiac tissue from hypoxia-tolerant animals might have high levels of specific HSPs. We measured myocardial HSP60 and HSP72/73 in painted and softshell turtles during normoxia and anoxia (12 h) and after recovery (12 or 24 h). We also measured myocardial HSPs in normoxic rats and rabbits. During normoxia, hearts from the most highly anoxia-tolerant species, the painted turtle, expressed the highest levels of HSP60 (22.6+/-2.0 mg/g total protein) followed by softshells (11.5+/-0.8 mg/g), rabbits (6.8+/-0.9 mg/g), and rats (4.5+/-0.5 mg/g). HSP72/73 levels, however, were not significantly different. HSP60 levels in hearts from both painted and softshell turtles did not deviate significantly from control values after either 12 h of anoxia or 12 or 24 h of recovery. The pattern of changes observed in HSP72/73 was quite different in the two turtle species. In painted turtles anoxia induced a significant increase in myocardial HSP72/73 (from 2.8+/-0.1 mg/g normoxic to 3.9+/-0.2 mg/g anoxic, P<0.05). By 12 h of recovery, HSP72/73 had returned to control levels (2.7+/-0.1 mg/g) and remained there through 24 h (2.6+/-0.2 mg/g). In softshell turtles, HSP72/73 decreased significantly after 12 h of anoxia (from 2.4+/-0.4 mg/g normoxic to 1.3+/-0.2 mg/g anoxic, P<0.05). HSP72/73 levels were still slightly below control after 12 h of recovery (2.1+/-0.1 mg/g) and then rose to significantly above control after 24 h of recovery (4.1+/-0.7 mg/g, P<0.05). We also conclude that anoxia-tolerant and anoxia-sensitive turtles exhibit different patterns of myocardial HSP changes during anoxia and recovery. Whether these changes correlate with their relative degrees of anoxia tolerance remains to be determined. 相似文献

Abstract: Fluorescence of NADH and vascular volume of the brain cortex of chloralose-anesthetized cats were measured by surface fluororeflectometry. A cranial window and superfusion technique was elaborated for the topical inhibition of mitochondrial electron transport in the brain cortex by amytal (inhibits at site I) and cyanide (inhibits at site III). The changes in NAD/NADH redox state and CVV evoked by these electron transport inhibitors were compared with those elicited by anoxic anoxia. Amytal (10-3 -10-1 M ) and cyanide (10-5 -10-2 M ) resulted in a concentration-dependent and reversible increase in cortical NAD reduction and vascular volume, but the cerebrocortical vessels were almost completely dilatated long before maximum NAD reduction was reached. Cyanide at 10-2 M increased cortical NAD reduction and vascular volume as much as anoxic anoxia. Amytal at 10-1 M induced approximately half of the NAD reduction evoked by 10-2 M cyanide or anoxic anoxia, but resulted in only slightly less vasodilatation than that following cyanide and anoxic anoxia. Since amytal inhibits mitochondrial electron transport at site I—and cyanide and anoxia at site III—but induces a comparable degree of vasodilatation, it is concluded that cytochrome oxidase cannot be the single molecular oxygen sensor in the brain cortex. 相似文献

Pigs are increasingly used as in vivo models in neuroscience, including studies using positron emission tomography. During anesthesia, cerebral blood flow (CBF) and cerebral blood volume (CBV) are mainly regulated by the partial pressure of CO2 (pCO2) in arterial blood. We sought to determine the effects of increased arterial pCO2 (hypercapnia) on CBF and CBV in anesthetized domestic pigs. We anesthetized 4 pigs and manipulated the tidal volume of the ventilator to different pCO2 levels. Baseline pCO2 was on average 6.5 kPa (n = 9 periods) and hypercapnia pCO2 ranged from 11 to 20 kPa, mean 18.5 kPa (n = 9 periods). Series of dynamic PET scans with H(2)15O (CBF measurements) and C15O (CBV measurements) were performed. CBF increased on average 54%, from mean 0.48 ml blood/min/ml brain tissue during normoxia to 0.74 ml blood/min/ml brain tissue during hypercapnia. CBV increased 41% from mean 0.061 ml blood/ml brain tissue (n = 6) during normoxia to 0.086 ml blood/ml brain tissue (n = 6) during hypercapnia. Our observations indicate that pCO2 levels have a major influence on porcine CBF and CBV and should be controlled in studies where a constant level is crucial. 相似文献

Increased nitric oxide (NO) production from hypoxic mammalian neurons increases cerebral blood flow (CBF) but also glutamatergic excitotoxicity and DNA fragmentation. Anoxia-tolerant freshwater turtles have evolved NO-independent mechanisms to increase CBF; however, the mechanism(s) of NO regulation are not understood. In turtle cortex, anoxia or NMDAR blockade depressed NO production by 27+/-3% and 41+/-5%, respectively. NMDAR antagonists also reduced the subsequent anoxic decrease in NO by 74+/-6%, suggesting the majority of the anoxic decrease is due to endogenous suppression of NMDAR activity. Prevention of NO-mediated damage during the transition to and from anoxia may be incidental to natural reductions of NMDAR activity in the anoxic turtle cortex. 相似文献

Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2) causes CO2 retention in the brain that leads to the increase in cerebral blood flow (CBF) by poorly understood mechanisms. We have tested the hypothesis that NO is implicated in CBF-responses to hypercapnia under hyperoxic conditions. Alert rats were exposed to HBO2 at 5 ata and blood flow in the striatum measured by H2 clearance every 10 min. Acetazolamide, the inhibitor of carbonic anhydrase, was used to increase brain PCO2. CBF responses to acetazolamide administration (30 mg/kg, i.p.) were assessed in rats breathing air at 1 ata or oxygen at 5 ata with and without NOS inhibition (L-NAME, 30 mg/kg, i.p.). In rats breathing air, acetazolamide increased CBF by 34 +/- 7.4% over 30 min and by 28 +/- 12% over 3 hours while NOS inhibition with L-NAME attenuated acetazolamide-induced cerebral vasodilatation. HBO2 at 5 ata reduced CBF during the first 30 min hyperoxia, after that CBF increased by 55 +/- 19% above pre-exposure levels. In acetazolamide-treated animals, no HBO, induced vasoconstricton was observed and striatal blood flow increased by 53 +/- 18% within 10 min of hyperbaric exposure. After NOS inhibition, cerebral vasodilatation in response to acetazolamide during HBO2 exposure was significantly attenuated. The study demonstrates that NO is implicated in acetazolamide (CO2)-induced cerebral hyperemia under hyperbaric oxygen exposure. 相似文献

The hemodynamic response during and after acute asphyxia was studied in 14 newborn piglets. An apnea-like asphyxial insult was produced in paralyzed mechanically ventilated piglets by discontinuing ventilation until the piglets became bradycardic (heart rate less than 80 beats/min). Seven piglets had organ blood flow measured by microspheres at control, during asphyxia (PO2 = 16 +/- 11 Torr, pH = 7.31 +/- 0.07, PCO2 = 47 +/- 9 Torr), and during recovery from asphyxia. During acute asphyxia, rapid organ blood flow redistribution occurred, producing decreased renal and skeletal muscle blood flow, while coronary blood flow increased. Although total brain blood flow changed little during asphyxia, regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) analysis revealed significant nonhomogeneous blood flow distribution within the brain during asphyxia, with decreases to the cerebral gray and white matter and the choroid plexus, whereas brain stem structures had increased flow. During recovery with reventilation, total brain blood flow increased 24% above control, with a more uniform distribution and increased flow to all brain regions. The time course of rCBF changes during acute asphyxia was then determined in seven additional piglets with CBF measurements made sequentially at 30-60 s, 60-120 s, and 120-180 s of asphyxia. The vasoconstriction seen in cortical structures, concurrent with the reduction in skeletal and kidney blood flow, known to be sympathetically mediated, suggest a selective reflex effect in this brain region. The more gradual and progressive vasodilation in brain stem regions during asphyxia is consistent with chemical control. These findings demonstrate significant regional heterogeneity in CBF regulation in newborn piglets. 相似文献

Cerebral vasodilation in hypoxia may involve endothelium-derived relaxing factor-nitric oxide. Methylene blue (MB), an in vitro inhibitor of soluble guanylate cyclase, was injected intravenously into six adult ewes instrumented chronically with left ventricular, aortic, and sagittal sinus catheters. In normoxia, MB (0.5 mg/kg) did not alter cerebral blood flow (CBF, measured with 15-microns radiolabeled microspheres), cerebral O2 uptake, mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate, cerebral lactate release, or cerebral O2 extraction fraction (OEF). After 1 h of normobaric poikilocapnic hypoxia (arterial PO2 40 Torr, arterial O2 saturation 50%), CBF increased from 51 +/- 5.8 to 142 +/- 18.8 ml.min-1 x 100 g-1, cerebral O2 uptake from 3.5 +/- 0.25 to 4.7 +/- 0.41 ml.min-1 x 100 g-1, cerebral lactate release from 2 +/- 10 to 100 +/- 50 mumol.min- x 100 g-1, and heart rate from 107 +/- 5 to 155 +/- 9 beats/min (P < 0.01). MAP and OEF were unchanged from 91 +/- 3 mmHg and 48 +/- 4%, respectively. In hypoxia, 30 min after MB (0.5 mg/kg), CBF declined to 79.3 +/- 11.7 ml.min-1 x 100 g-1 (P < 0.01), brain O2 uptake (4.3 +/- 0.9 ml.min-1 x 100 g-1) and heart rate (133 +/- 9 beats/min) remained elevated, cerebral lactate release became negative (-155 +/- 60 mumol.min-1 x 100 g-1, P < 0.01), OEF increased to 57 +/- 3% (P < 0.01), and MAP (93 +/- 5 mmHg) was unchanged. The sheep became behaviorally depressed, probably because of global cerebral ischemia. These results may be related to interference with a guanylate cyclase-dependent mechanism.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献
