Our objectives were to investigate the extent to which angiotensin II (ANG II) and converting-enzyme inhibition (CEI) exert a direct vasoactive influence on the pulmonary circulation of conscious dogs. Multipoint pulmonary vascular pressure-cardiac index (P/Q) plots were constructed during normoxia in conscious dogs by stepwise constriction of the thoracic inferior vena cava to reduce Q. The effects of ANG II infusion (60 ng X kg-1 X min-1, iv) and CEI with captopril (1 mg/kg plus 1 mg X kg-1 X h-1, iv) on pulmonary vascular P/Q plots were assessed first with the conscious dogs intact and again after combined administration of pharmacological antagonists to block sympathetic alpha- and beta-adrenergic, cholinergic, and arginine vasopressin receptors. In intact dogs, ANG II increased (P less than 0.01) the pulmonary vascular pressure gradient (pulmonary arterial pressure-pulmonary capillary wedge pressure, PAP-PCWP) over the entire range of Q studied (60-120 ml X min-1 X kg-1). Conversely, CEI decreased (P less than 0.05) PAP-PCWP at each level of Q. After administration of the autonomic nervous system and arginine vasopressin receptor antagonists, ANG II again increased (P less than 0.01) and CEI decreased (P less than 0.01) PAP-PCWP over the entire range of Q studied. Thus exogenous administration of ANG II results in active, nonflow-dependent constriction of the pulmonary circulation, and this effect is not dependent on the autonomic nervous system or increased circulating levels of arginine vasopressin.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Absence of neural modulation of hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction in conscious dogs 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Our objectives were 1) to quantify the magnitude of the hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstrictor (HPV) response in conscious dogs by utilizing pulmonary vascular pressure-cardiac index (P/Q) plots and 2) to assess the extent to which the autonomic nervous system (ANS) modulates the HPV response. Multipoint P/Q plots were constructed in conscious dogs during normoxia and during bilateral alveolar hypoxia by stepwise constriction of the thoracic inferior vena cava to reduce Q. With the ANS intact, the pulmonary vascular pressure gradient (pulmonary arterial pressure-pulmonary capillary wedge pressure) increased (P less than 0.01) approximately twofold during hypoxia over a broad range of Q. The absolute magnitude of the HPV response was related (P less than 0.01) to the level of Q. We hypothesized that if ANS activation reduces the magnitude of HPV in intact dogs, then we would expect the magnitude of HPV to be increased both after combined sympathetic alpha-(phentolamine) and beta-(propranolol) adrenergic block and after total autonomic ganglionic block (hexamethonium). A marked HPV response (P less than 0.01) was observed after both combined sympathetic block and ganglionic block over a broad range of Q during alveolar hypoxia. The magnitude of the HPV response with the ANS intact, however, was not significantly different from the magnitude of HPV after combined sympathetic block (P = 0.45) or after ganglionic block (P = 0.64) at any level of Q. Thus, during bilateral alveolar hypoxia, the ANS does not appear to attenuate the HPV response of intact conscious dogs. 相似文献

Our objectives were to investigate the pulmonary vascular effects of exogenously administered bradykinin at normal and reduced levels of cardiac index in intact conscious dogs and to assess the extent to which the pulmonary vascular response to bradykinin is the result of either cyclooxygenase pathway activation or reflex activation of sympathetic beta-adrenergic and -cholinergic receptors. Multipoint pulmonary vascular pressure-cardiac index (P/Q) plots were constructed during normoxia in conscious dogs by step-wise constriction of the thoracic inferior vena cava to reduce Q. In intact dogs, bradykinin (2 micrograms X kg-1 X min-1 iv) caused systemic vasodilation, i.e., systemic arterial pressure was slightly decreased (P less than 0.05), Q was markedly increased (P less than 0.01), and mixed venous PO2 and oxygen saturation (SO2) were increased (P less than 0.01). Bradykinin decreased (P less than 0.01) the pulmonary vascular pressure gradient (pulmonary arterial pressure-pulmonary capillary wedge pressure) over the entire range of Q studied (140-60 ml X min-1 X kg-1) in intact dogs. During cyclooxygenase pathway inhibition with indomethacin, bradykinin again decreased (P less than 0.05) pulmonary arterial pressure-pulmonary capillary wedge pressure at every level of Q, although the magnitude of the vasodilator response was diminished at lower levels of Q (60 ml X min-1 X kg-1). Following combined administration of sympathetic beta-adrenergic and -cholinergic receptor antagonists, bradykinin still decreased (P less than 0.01) pulmonary arterial pressure-pulmonary capillary wedge pressure over the range of Q from 160 to 60 ml X min-1 X kg-1.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

We investigated the effects of an intravenous (pentobarbital sodium) and inhalational (halothane) general anesthetic on the pulmonary vascular responses to angiotensin II and angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibition (CEI). Multipoint pulmonary vascular pressure-flow (P/Q) plots were generated in conscious pentobarbital- (30 mg/kg iv) and halothane-anesthetized (approximately 1.2% end-tidal) dogs in the intact (no drug) condition, during angiotensin II administration (60 ng.kg-1.min-1 iv), and during CEI (captopril 1 mg/kg plus 1 mg.kg-1.h-1 iv). In conscious dogs, angiotensin II increased (P less than 0.001) the pulmonary vascular pressure gradient [pulmonary arterial pressure--pulmonary arterial wedge pressure (PAP-PAWP)] over the empirically measured range of Q; i.e., angiotensin II caused pulmonary vasoconstriction. Pulmonary vasoconstriction (P less than 0.01) in response to angiotensin II was also observed during pentobarbital sodium anesthesia. In contrast, angiotensin II had no effect on the P/Q relationship during halothane anesthesia. In conscious dogs, CEI decreased (P less than 0.001) PAP-PAWP over the empirically measured range of Q; i.e., CEI caused pulmonary vasodilation. However, CEI caused pulmonary vasoconstriction (P less than 0.02) during pentobarbital sodium and had no effect on the P/Q relationship during halothane. Thus, compared with the conscious state, the pulmonary vasoconstrictor response to angiotensin II is unchanged or abolished, and the pulmonary vasodilator response to CEI is reversed to vasoconstriction or abolished during pentobarbital sodium and halothane anesthesia, respectively. 相似文献

Pulmonary vascular responses to surgical chemodenervation and chemical sympathectomy in dogs 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

We investigated the effects of surgical peripheral chemoreceptor denervation, chemical sympathectomy with 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA), and the peripheral chemoreceptor stimulant almitrine on multipoint pulmonary arterial pressure-cardiac index (PAP/Q) plots in 30 pentobarbital sodium-anesthetized dogs ventilated alternatively in hyperoxia [fraction of inspired O2, (FIO2) = 0.4] and hypoxia (FIO2 = 0.1). A hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV), i.e., a hypoxia-induced increase in PAP over the entire range of Q studied, from 2 to 5 l.min-1.m-2, was elicited in all the animals. Surgical denervation of the carotid and aortic chemoreceptors in a first group of nine dogs increased PAP at the lowest Q of 2 and 3 l.min-1.min-2 in hyperoxia and increased PAP at all levels of Q in hypoxia, so that HPV was enhanced. Chemical sympathectomy in a second group of eight dogs increased PAP at all levels of Q to a comparable extent in hyperoxia and hypoxia so that HPV remained unchanged. Almitrine (8 micrograms.kg-1.min-1 iv) in a third group of eight dogs increased PAP at all levels of Q in hyperoxia but had no effect on PAP/Q plots in hypoxia, so that HPV was inhibited. Almitrine had these same pulmonary vascular effects when administered to the chemodenervated and the sympathectomized dogs. Sham operation and a 2-h delay in a final group of five dogs had no effect on hyperoxic or hypoxic PAP/Q plots. We conclude that in intact dogs 1) the sympathetic nervous system reduces both hyperoxic and hypoxic pulmonary vascular tone, 2) stimulation of the peripheral chemoreceptors inhibits HPV, and 3) almitrine has direct pulmonary vasoconstricting effects in hyperoxia but not hypoxia. 相似文献

We investigated the acute and chronic effects of left lung autotransplantation (LLA) on the left pulmonary vascular pressure-flow (LP/Q) relationship in conscious dogs. Continuous LP/Q plots were generated in chronically instrumented conscious dogs 2 days, 2 wk, 1 mo, and 2 mo after LLA. Identically instrumented normal conscious dogs were studied at equal time points post-surgery. LLA had little or no effect on baseline systemic hemodynamics or blood gases. In contrast, compared with normal conscious dogs, striking active flow-independent pulmonary vasoconstriction was observed 2 days post-LLA. The slope of the LP/Q relationship was increased from a normal value of 0.275 +/- 0.021 to 0.699 +/- 0.137 mmHg.ml-1.min-1.kg-1 2 days post-LLA. Pulmonary vasoconstriction of similar magnitude was also observed on a chronic basis at 2 wk, 1 mo, and even 2 mo post-LLA. Pulmonary vasoconstriction post-LLA was not due to fixed resistance at the left pulmonary arterial or venous anastomotic sites. Finally, systemic arterial blood gases were unchanged when total pulmonary blood flow was directed to exclusively perfuse the transplanted left lung. Thus, LLA results in both acute and chronic pulmonary vasoconstriction in conscious dogs. LLA should serve as a useful stable experimental model to assess the specific effects of surgical transplantation on pulmonary vascular regulation. 相似文献

The bovine pulmonary vascular response to alpha- and beta-agonists was studied using an awake intact calf model. Pulmonary arterial pressure, pulmonary arterial wedge pressure, left atrial pressure, systemic arterial pressure, and cardiac output were measured in response to 3 min infusions of isoproterenol (beta-agonist; 0.12, 0.24, 0.48, 0.9, and 1.8 micrograms X kg-1 X min-1) and phenylephrine (alpha-agonist, 0.15, 0.30, 0.60, 1.15, and 2.30 micrograms X kg-1 X min-1). Phenylephrine caused an increase in vascular resistance in the pulmonary arterial and venous compartments. The slope of the resistance in response to phenylephrine was greater in the pulmonary arterial than pulmonary venous circulation. Isoproterenol resulted in a dose-dependent decrease in vascular resistance in the pulmonary arteries and veins. The vascular resistance was decreased to the same level in the pulmonary arteries and veins although the arteries showed a greater percent change. In addition, isoproterenol infusion resulted in a transient decrease in arterial pH and increase in values for packed cell volume and haemoglobin. 相似文献

We investigated the effects of an intravenous (pentobarbital sodium) and an inhalational (halothane) general anesthetic on guanosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate- (cGMP) mediated pulmonary vasodilation compared with responses measured in the conscious state. Multipoint pulmonary vascular pressure-flow plots were generated in the same nine dogs in the fully conscious state, during pentobarbital sodium anesthesia (30 mg/kg iv), and during halothane anesthesia (approximately 1.2% end tidal). Continuous intravenous infusions of bradykinin (2 micrograms.kg-1.min-1) and sodium nitroprusside (5 micrograms.kg-1.min-1) were utilized to stimulate endothelium-dependent and -independent cGMP-mediated pulmonary vasodilation, respectively. In the conscious state, both bradykinin and nitroprusside decreased (P less than 0.01) the pulmonary vascular pressure gradient (pulmonary arterial pressure-pulmonary arterial wedge pressure) over the entire range of flows studied; i.e., bradykinin and nitroprusside caused active flow-independent pulmonary vasodilation. Pulmonary vasodilator responses to bradykinin (P less than 0.01) and nitroprusside (P less than 0.05) were also observed during pentobarbital anesthesia. In contrast, during halothane anesthesia, the pulmonary vasodilator responses to both bradykinin and nitroprusside were abolished. These results indicate that, compared with the conscious state, cGMP-mediated pulmonary vasodilation is preserved during pentobarbital anesthesia but is abolished during halothane anesthesia. 相似文献

The role of beta-adrenergic agonists, such as isoproterenol, on vascular capacitance is unclear. Some investigators have suggested that isoproterenol causes a net transfer of blood to the chest from the splanchnic bed. We tested this hypothesis in dogs by measuring liver thickness, cardiac output, cardiopulmonary blood volume, mean circulatory filling pressure, portal venous, central venous, pulmonary arterial, and systemic arterial pressures while infusing norepinephrine (2.6 micrograms.min-1.kg-1), or isoproterenol (2.0 micrograms.min-1.kg-1), or histamine (4 micrograms.min-1.kg-1), or a combination of histamine and isoproterenol. Norepinephrine (an alpha- and beta 1-adrenergic agonist) decreased hepatic thickness and increased mean circulatory filling pressure, cardiac output, cardiopulmonary blood volume, total peripheral resistance, and systemic arterial and portal pressures. Isoproterenol increased cardiac output and decreased total peripheral resistance, but it had little effect on liver thickness or mean circulatory filling pressure and did not increase the cardiopulmonary blood volume or central venous pressure. Histamine caused a marked increase in portal pressure and liver thickness and decreased cardiac output, but it had little effect on the estimated mean circulatory filling pressure. Isoproterenol during histamine infusions reduced histamine-induced portal hypertension, reduced liver size, and increased cardiac output. We conclude that the beta-adrenergic agonist, isoproterenol, has little influence on vascular capacitance or liver volume of dogs, unless the hepatic outflow resistance is elevated by agents such as histamine. 相似文献

Hypoxic stimulation of the peripheral chemoreceptors has been reported to inhibit hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction. To evaluate the pathophysiological importance of this observation, we investigated the effects of surgical peripheral chemoreceptor denervation on pulmonary vascular tone and gas exchange in 17 pentobarbital-anesthetized dogs with oleic acid pulmonary edema. Pulmonary arterial pressure-cardiac index (Ppa/Q) plots, blood gases, and intrapulmonary shunt measured by the SF6 method were obtained at base line, after peripheral chemodenervation (n = 9) or after sham operation (n = 8), and again after 0.09 ml.kg-1 intravenous oleic acid. Over the range of Q studied (2-5 l.min-1.m-2), Ppa/Q plots were best fitted as first-order polynomials in most dogs in all experimental conditions. Chemoreceptor denervation increased Ppa at the lowest Q, while sham operation did not affect the Ppa/Q plots. Oleic acid increased Ppa over the entire range of Q and increased intrapulmonary shunt. This latter was measured at identical Q during the construction of the Ppa/Q plots. Chemoreceptor-denervated dogs, compared with sham-operated dogs, had the same pulmonary hypertension but lower intrapulmonary shunt (36 +/- 4 vs. 48 +/- 5%, means +/- SE, P less than 0.04) and venous admixture (43 +/- 4 vs. 54 +/- 3%, P less than 0.02). We conclude that in intact dogs chemoreceptor denervation attenuates the rise in intrapulmonary shunt after oleic acid lung injury. Whether this improvement in gas exchange is related to an enhanced hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction is uncertain. 相似文献

Recent evidence suggests that heavy exercise may lower the percentage of O2 bound to hemoglobin (%SaO2) by greater than or equal to 5% below resting values in some highly trained endurance athletes. We tested the hypothesis that pulmonary gas exchange limitations may restrict VO2max in highly trained athletes who exhibit exercise-induced hypoxemia. Twenty healthy male volunteers were divided into two groups according to their physical fitness status and the demonstration of exercise-induced reductions in %SaO2 less than or equal to 92%: 1) trained (T), mean VO2max = 56.5 ml.kg-1.min-1 (n = 13) and 2) highly trained (HT) with maximal exercise %SaO2 less than or equal to 92%, mean VO2max = 70.1 ml.kg-1.min-1 (n = 7). Subjects performed two incremental cycle ergometer exercise tests to determine VO2max at sea level under normoxic (21% O2) and mild hyperoxic conditions (26% O2). Mean %SaO2 during maximal exercise was significantly higher (P less than 0.05) during hyperoxia compared with normoxia in both the T group (94.1 vs. 96.1%) and the HT group (90.6 vs. 95.9%). Mean VO2max was significantly elevated (P less than 0.05) during hyperoxia compared with normoxia in the HT group (74.7 vs. 70.1 ml.kg-1.min-1). In contrast, in the T group, no mean difference (P less than 0.05) existed between treatments in VO2max (56.5 vs. 57.1 ml.kg-1.min-1). These data suggest that pulmonary gas exchange may contribute significantly to the limitation of VO2max in highly trained athletes who exhibit exercise-induced reductions in %SaO2 at sea level.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The role of sympathetic innervation in the regulation of hindlimb skeletal muscle blood flow (QL) and metabolism was studied prior to and during acute anemia in anesthetized, paralyzed, and ventilated dogs (n = 8). Neural activity in the sciatic nerve was reversibly cold blocked for a 15-min period at control hematocrit (Hct., 51%) and again at 30 min of anemia (Hct., 14%). At the end of each experiment the sciatic nerve was transected and maximally stimulated (frequency, 10 Hz; duration, 2.0 ms). Arterial blood pressure and QL were measured continuously; skeletal muscle vascular hindrance (ZL) and oxygen uptake (VO2) were calculated. When the sciatic nerve was cold blocked prior to and during anemia, ZL decreased to the same absolute value and VO2 remained unchanged. Prior to anemia the mean QL increased (p less than 0.05) from 99 to a peak value of 165 mL.kg-1.min-1 during cold block; QL had returned to control by 10 min of cooling. During anemia, QL increased (p less than 0.05) from 160 to 307 mL.kg-1.min-1 during sympathetic cold block, while maximal sympathetic stimulation decreased QL to 87 mL.kg-1.min-1. QL remained above (p less than 0.05) the anemia control value (160 mL.kg-1.min-1) at 10 min of cooling. Hindrance increased from 0.30 to 0.38 peripheral resistance units/centipoise following the induction of anemia and this was shown to be sympathetically mediated because hindrance was decreased to the same level during cold block prior to and during anemia. 相似文献

The influence of endogenous and exogenous atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) on pulmonary hemodynamics was investigated in anesthetized pigs during both normoxia and hypoxia. Continuous hypoxic ventilation with 11% O2 was associated with a uniform but transient increase of plasma immunoreactive (ir) ANF that peaked at 15 min. Plasma irANF was inversely related to pulmonary arterial pressure (Ppa; r = -0.66, P less than 0.01) and pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR; r = -0.56, P less than 0.05) at 30 min of hypoxia in 14 animals; no such relationship was found during normoxia. ANF infusion after 60 min of hypoxia in seven pigs reduced the 156 +/- 20% increase in PVR to 124 +/- 18% (P less than 0.01) at 0.01 microgram.kg-1.min-1 and to 101 +/- 15% (P less than 0.001) at 0.05 microgram.kg-1.min-1. Cardiac output (CO) and systemic arterial pressure (Psa) remained unchanged, whereas mean Ppa decreased from 25.5 +/- 1.5 to 20.5 +/- 15 mmHg (P less than 0.001) and plasma irANF increased two- to nine-fold. ANF infused at 0.1 microgram.kg-1.min-1 (resulting in a 50-fold plasma irANF increase) decreased Psa (-14%) and reduced CO (-10%); systemic vascular resistance (SVR) was not changed, nor was a further decrease in PVR induced. No change in PVR or SVR occurred in normoxic animals at any ANF infusion rate. These results suggest that ANF may act as an endogenous pulmonary vasodilator that could modulate the pulmonary pressor response to hypoxia. 相似文献

The effect of beta-adrenergic stimulation on atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) release was studied in conscious rats. 20-min infusion of 85 or 850 ng kg-1 min-1 isoproterenol (ISO) resulted in positive inotropic and chronotropic responses and no elevation of atrial pressures. A slight increase in plasma ANF, together with a drop in blood pressure, were observed only in the group infused with the higher dose. During the infusion of 850 ng kg-1 min-1 ISO, there was no relationship between plasma ANF and any of the haemodynamic parameters, with the exception of mean arterial pressure (r = 0.72, P less than 0.05, n = 9). Larger doses (greater than 3 micrograms kg-1 min-1) were toxic. We conclude that beta-adrenergic stimulation is not an important stimulus for ANF release when diastolic resting tension is low. 相似文献

To determine the temporal response of the fetal pulmonary circulation to pharmacologic vasodilators and to assess vasoreactivity following vasodilation, we infused either acetylcholine, histamine, or bradykinin directly into the left pulmonary artery of 21 chronically prepared fetal sheep. Blood flow (Q) to the left lung was measured by electromagnetic flow transducer. Left pulmonary artery infusion of acetylcholine at 1.5 micrograms.min-1 for 2 hr produced an increase in Q from 59 +/- 8 ml.min-1 to a peak of 113 +/- 10 ml.min-1 at 20 min into the infusion (P less than 0.001). After the peak at 20 min, Q steadily declined toward baseline to 66 +/- 7 ml.min-1 at the end of the 2-hr infusion period (P less than 0.01). Q in the 1/2-hr period following infusion was significantly less than the baseline period (47 +/- 6; P less than 0.04) with no change in pulmonary artery pressure. Similar patterns were seen with 2-hr infusions of histamine (150 ng.min-1) and bradykinin (100 ng.min-1). After a 2-hr infusion of one of the agents, a repeat infusion with that agent or a different one resulted in a diminished response. We conclude that fetal pulmonary vasodilation in response to local infusion of acetylcholine, histamine, or bradykinin is not sustained over a 2-hr period, and that following 2-hr exposure to vasodilators, pulmonary vascular resistance is increased and pulmonary vasoreactivity to pharmacologic vasodilators is decreased. 相似文献

Pulmonary arterial pressure-flow plots in dogs: effects of isoflurane and nitroprusside 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

We investigated the effects of nitroprusside and isoflurane on multipoint pulmonary arterial pressure (PAP)/cardiac index (Q) plots in pentobarbital sodium-anesthetized dogs ventilated alternatively in hyperoxia (fraction of inspired O2, FIO2, 0.4) and hypoxia (FIO2 0.1). Over the entire range of Q studied, 2-5 l.min-1.m-2, hypoxia increased PAP in 16 dogs ("responders") and did not affect PAP in 16 other dogs ("nonresponders"). A hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV) was restored in the nonresponders by intravenous administration of 1 g of acetylsalicylic acid (ASA). Nitroprusside (5 micrograms.kg-1.min-1) inhibited HPV in responders (n = 8) and nonresponders treated with ASA (n = 8). End-tidal 1.41% isoflurane (a minimal alveolar concentration equal to one for dogs) did not affect HPV in responders (n = 8) and nonresponders treated with ASA (n = 8). In the latter group isoflurane increased PAP at the highest Q studied (3-5 l.min-1.m-2) in hyperoxia and hypoxia. In a final group of eight dogs with Q kept constant, PAP remained unchanged during two consecutive sequences of alternated 30-min periods (maximum time to generate a PAP/Q plot) successively at FIO2 0.4 and 0.1, and the hypoxia-induced increase in PAP was reproducible. Thus the present experimental model appeared suitable for the study of the effects of hypoxia and drugs on pulmonary vascular tone of intact dogs. At the given doses HPV was inhibited by nitroprusside and not affected by isoflurane. Products of arachidonic acid metabolism possibly could be implicated in the pulmonary vascular effects of isoflurane. 相似文献

We studied hemodynamic responses to alpha- and beta-receptor agonists in eight men to test the hypothesis that adrenoreceptor responsiveness is altered within 24 h of the performance of maximal exercise. Adrenoreceptor responsiveness was tested under two experimental conditions (with and without maximal exercise). Adrenoreceptor tests were performed 24 h after each subject performed graded upright cycle ergometry to volitional exhaustion. The 2 test days (experimental conditions) were separated by at least 1 wk, and the order of exercise and no-exercise conditions was counterbalanced. Steady-state graded infusions of phenylephrine (PE) and isoproterenol (Iso) were used to assess alpha- and beta-adrenoreceptor responsiveness, respectively. Slopes calculated from linear regressions between Iso and PE doses and changes in heart rate, blood pressure, and leg vascular resistance for each subject were used as an index of alpha- and beta-adrenoreceptor responsiveness. The slope of the relationship between heart rate and Iso with maximal exercise was 1773 +/- 164 beats x microm-1x kg-1x min-1 compared with 1987 +/- 142 beats x microg-1x kg-1x min-1 without exercise (P = 0.158), whereas the slopes of the relationship between vascular resistance to Iso were -438 +/- 123 peripheral resistance units (PRU) x microg-1x kg-1x min-1 with maximal exercise and -429 +/- 105 x microg-1x kg-1 x min-1 without exercise (P = 0.904). Maximal exercise was associated with greater (P < 0.05) vascular resistance (15.1 +/- 2.8 PRU x microg-1 kg-1x min-1) and mean arterial blood pressure (15.8 +/- 2.1 mmHg. microg-1x kg-1x min-1) responses to PE infusion compared with no exercise (9.0 +/- 2.0 PRU x microg-1 kg-1 x min-1 and 10.9 +/- 2.0 mmHg. microg-1x kg-1x min-1, respectively). These results provide evidence that a single bout of maximal exercise increases alpha1-adrenoreceptor responsiveness within 24 h without affecting beta-cardiac and vascular adrenoreceptor responses. 相似文献

Acute hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV) may be mediated by vasoactive peptides. We studied eight conscious, chronically tracheostomized dogs kept on a standardized dietary sodium intake. Normoxia (40 min) was followed by hypoxia (40 min, breathing 10% oxygen, arterial oxygen pressures 36 +/- 1 Torr) during both control (Con) and losartan experiments (Los; iv infusion of 100 microg. min-1. kg-1 losartan). During hypoxia, minute ventilation (by 0.9 l/min in Con, by 1.3 l/min in Los), cardiac output (by 0.36 l/min in Con, by 0.30 l/min in Los), heart rate (by 11 beats/min in Con, by 30 beats/min in Los), pulmonary artery pressure (by 9 mmHg in both protocols), and pulmonary vascular resistance (by 280 and 254 dyn. s. cm-5 in Con and Los, respectively) increased. Mean arterial pressure and systemic vascular resistance did not change. In Con, PRA decreased from 4.2 +/- 0.7 to 2.5 +/- 0.5 ng ANG I. ml-1. h-1, and plasma ANG II decreased from 11.9 +/- 3.0 to 8.2 +/- 2.1 pg/ml. The renin-angiotensin system is inhibited during acute hypoxia despite sympathetic activation. Under these conditions, ANG II AT1-receptor antagonism does not attenuate HPV. 相似文献

The pharmacokinetics and organ catabolism of cholecystokinin octapeptide (CCK8) were studied in pigs. In conscious animals, intravenous infusion of increasing doses of CCK8 (2.9-232.3 pmol.kg-1.min-1) resulted in a linear increase of plasma CCK-like immunoreactivity (CCK-LI). At the cessation of infusion of the largest dose of CCK8, plasma CCK-LI promptly returned to near basal values. The half-disappearance time (t1/2), metabolic clearance rate (MCR) and distribution volume (DV) were estimated to be 0.55 +/- 0.03 min, 134.8 +/- 10.8 ml.kg-1.min-1 and 107.9 +/- 13.0 ml.kg-1, respectively. In another group of anesthetized animals, infusion of CCK8 at similar doses produced higher plateau plasma CCK levels and the t1/2, MCR and DV were calculated to be 0.68 +/- 0.06 min, 32.5 +/- 3.9 ml.kg-1.min-1 and 45.2 +/- 5.6 ml.kg-1, respectively. Estimates of first-pass immunological degradation through various vascular beds were in the range 27-66%, with in decreasing order the kidney, liver, hindleg, followed by the brain and gut. These results indicate that immunoreactive CCK8 is rapidly cleared from plasma during passage through several vascular beds. The peptide is only partly inactivated during hepatic transit and so may exert hormonal effects upon its release from intestinal stores. 相似文献

Pulmonary gas exchange was investigated before and after an increase in pulmonary vascular tone induced by administration of acetylsalicylic acid (ASA), indomethacin, or almitrine in 32 pentobarbital-anesthetized and ventilated (fraction of inspired O2 0.4) dogs with oleic acid lung injury. Pulmonary vascular tone was evaluated by five-point pulmonary arterial pressure (PAP)/cardiac index (Q) plots and intrapulmonary shunt was measured using a SF6 infusion. PAP/Q plots were rectilinear in all experimental conditions. In control dogs (n = 8), oleic acid (0.09 ml/kg iv) increased PAP over the range of Q studied (1-5 l.min-1.m-2). At the same Q, arterial PO2 fell from 186 +/- 11 to 65 +/- 8 (SE) Torr and intrapulmonary shunt rose from 5 +/- 1 to 50 +/- 6% 90 min after oleic acid injection. These changes remained stable during the generation of two consecutive PAP/Q plots. ASA (1 g iv, n = 8), indomethacin (2 mg/kg iv, n = 8), and almitrine (8 micrograms.kg-1.min-1 iv, n = 8) produced a further increase in PAP at each level of Q. ASA and indomethacin, respectively, increased arterial PO2 from 61 +/- 4 to 70 +/- 3 Torr (P less than 0.05) and from 70 +/- 6 to 86 +/- 6 Torr (P less than 0.05) and decreased intrapulmonary shunt from 61 +/- 5 to 44 +/- 4% (P less than 0.05) and from 44 +/- 5 to 29 +/- 4% (P less than 0.05).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献
