Vascular reactivity of perfused vascular bed in spontaneously hypertensive and normotensive rats.
نویسندگان
چکیده
1 Hypertensive and normotensive rats of the same age group were isolated from an inbred colony of spontaneously hypertensive rats. 2 The perfused hindquarter and mesenteric artery preparations obtained from hypertensive and normotensive rats exhibited an increased reactivity to noradrenaline (NA) and angiotensin II. 3 Dose-response curves to NA obtained from hypertensive and normotensive rats exhibited a steeper slope and higher maximum than those from control rats. 4 These findings suggest that increased vascular reactivity of blood vessels is independent of the development or maintenance of elevated blood pressure.

Reactivity of vascular smooth muscle in hypertensive rats.
The reactivity of vascular smooth muscle in helical strips from femoral arteries of normotensive, spontaneously hypertensive, renal hypertensive, and deoxycorticosterone acetate— (DCA-) hypertensive rats was studied. Spontaneous rhythmic contractions occurred in 25 of the 30 strips from the three groups of hypertensive rats and in only 2 of the 10 strips from normotensive rats. Strips from rena...
متن کاملEvaluation of vascular effects of aqueous Crocus sativus petals’ extract in the hypertensive rats
Background and Aim: Crocus sativus (C. sativus) petals attenuates smooth muscle tension and blood pressure in control animals. However the antihypertensive effect and its mechanisms haven’t been recognized. This study investigates the antihypertensive effects of C. sativus petals’ aqueous extract in hypertensive rats and also responses of the rat isolated perfused mesenteric bed. Materials and...
متن کاملEnhanced release of noradrenaline in the kidney of the young spontaneously hypertensive rat.
1. Vascular reactivity and noradrenaline overflow were studied in Tyrode solution-perfused kidneys from young (6 weeks) normotensive and spontaneously hypertensive (SH) rats. 2. The vasoconstrictor response to nerve stimulation was greater in the kidneys from young SH rats than in those from young control rats. 3. Nerve stimulation evoked a greater release of noradrenaline in the kidneys from y...
متن کاملEffect of age and spontaneous hypertension on the tachyphylaxis to 5-hydroxytryptamine and angiotensin II in the isolated rat kidney.
The isolated and perfused kidney of the mature spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR) exhibits an increased vascular reactivity and a delayed tachyphylaxis to 5-hydroxytryptamine, when compared to weight-matched normotensive animals. To evaluate the influence of the duration of the hypertensive state on these differences, the vascular reactivity to 5-hydroxytryptamine was determined in isolated k...
