Age and beta adrenoceptor-mediated function

Beta adrenoceptor-mediated responsiveness to isoproterenol was compared in young and old subjects using the production of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cyclic AMP) by lymphocytes as an index. The mean log dose-response curve for the elderly group was displaced to the right and the mean maximum response was less than that for the young subjects. The results corroborate evidence of a decreased response to isoproterenol-induced increases in heart rate in the elderly and raise the possibility of a generalized decrease in beta adrenoceptor-mediated functions in old age.     

Central alpha-2 adrenoceptor-mediated hypertensive response to clonidine in conscious, normotensive rats

Possible involvement of central alpha-2 adrenoceptors in the hypertensive response to i.c.v. injected clonidine was investigated in free-moving, normotensive rats. Clonidine (2-50 micrograms) injected i.c.v. produced a dose-dependent and long-lasting pressor response associated with bradycardia in conscious rats, but a long-lasting depressor response in anesthetized rats. The pressor response to clonidine (20 micrograms i.c.v.) was antagonized in a dose-dependent manner by central (i.c.v.) pretreatment with yohimbine (20-100 micrograms) and was abolished by a high dose (100 micrograms), whereas the same dose of yohimbine injected i.v. had less effect on the response. Central pretreatment with prazosin (10 and 20 micrograms) inhibited, but did not abolish, the pressor response to clonidine. However, systemic (i.v.) pretreatment with the same dose of prazosin (10 and 20 mu) was more effective in reducing the clonidine-induced pressor response than central pretreatment with the drug. The pressor response to clonidine (20 micrograms i.c.v.) was not significantly modified by central pretreatment with pyrilamine (50 and 100 micrograms), cimetidine (50 and 100 micrograms), ketanserin (50 and 100 micrograms) or procaine (100 micrograms). The selective alpha-2 adrenoceptor agonist, BHT-920, injected i.c.v. (5-50 micrograms) also produced a dose-dependent pressor response which was abolished by either anesthesia or central pretreatment with yohimbine, but not with prazosin, whereas the selective alpha-1 adrenoceptor agonist, methoxamine (10-100 micrograms i.c.v.), caused a slight increase in mean blood pressure only at higher doses.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)     

Altered element concentrations in tissues of spontaneously hypertensive rats

The involvement of elements in the pathological process of primary hypertension has been established. The tissue distribution of 12 elements was studied in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and normotensive homologous rats (WKY). A multi-element analytical technique allowed simultaneous determination of sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, strontium, rubidium, manganese, copper, zinc, iron, sulphur and phosphorus in blood, plasma, brain, liver, kidney, skeletal muscle, heart and bone. Most elements were modified in SHR, except Ca, Rb and S. In plasma, an increase in Cu (+22%) and a decrease in K (-8%), Mg (-15%) and P (-11%) were observed. These variations, qualitatively similar to those found in man, suggest that the results in animal tissues could be extrapolated to man. Modifications were observed in all the tissues tested. Among them significant variations were noted in Na (+18%), Mn (+12%) and Cu (+29%) in kidney, and in K (+5%), Mg (+9%), Sr (-29%) and Zn (+14%) in heart. The role of these plasma and tissue variations in hypertension is discussed, as well as the possible involvement of the hypertensive process and/or hormones.     

Contribution of vasopressin to the maintenance of blood pressure in deoxycorticosterone-salt induced malignant hypertension in spontaneously hypertensive rats

In the present study, deoxycorticosterone (DOC) and salt was administered to Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats and spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) by using silicone-rubber implants (DOC acetate, 100 mg/kg) and 0.9% NaCl as drinking water. SHR treated with DOC-salt for 4 weeks showed the characteristics of malignant hypertension including marked increases in blood pressure and left ventricular weight with typical histological changes in the kidney. DOC-salt treatment increased plasma vasopressin levels in WKY (from 6.1 +/- 0.5 to 8.9 +/- 0.8 pmol/l) but significantly more in SHR (from 5.0 +/- 0.6 to 15.8 +/- 1.2 pmol/l). Intravenous administration of the specific antagonist to the pressor effect of vasopressin, d(CH2)5Tyr(Me)AVP (10 micrograms/kg), decreased mean arterial pressure of DOC-salt treated WKY and SHR by 6.6 +/- 0.9 mmHg (P less than 0.05) and 9.7 +/- 1.7 mmHg (P less than 0.05) respectively. DOC-water treatment also increased plasma AVP levels in SHR to 10.5 +/- 0.8 pmol/l, but the vasopressin antagonist had little effect on blood pressure in these rats. Plasma levels of vasopressin were significantly correlated with both mean arterial pressure (r = 0.64) and left ventricular weight (r = 0.74). This suggests a close relationship between plasma AVP and severity of hypertension. The results of the present experiment demonstrate that vasopressin is part of the overall pressor mechanism which contributes to the maintenance of blood pressure in DOC-salt induced malignant hypertension in SHR, but the small fall in pressure produced by the AVP antagonists suggests that the contribution is of only minor importance.     

Age-related decrease in beta adrenergic receptor-mediated vascular smooth muscle relaxation

Beta adrenergic receptor-mediated vascular smooth muscle relaxation decreases with increasing age. We have examined the mechanism responsible for this phenomenon using rat mesenteric arteries from young (5-6 weeks) and older (10-12 months) rats. The beta adrenergic agonist isoproterenol produced a dose-dependent relaxation of serotonin-constricted mesenteric artery rings from young rats, whereas the maximal ability of isoproterenol to relax arterial rings from the older rats was found to be reduced markedly (92.7 vs. 27.6%, P less than .0001). The relaxation responses caused by acetylcholine and nitroglycerin, which appear to act independently of cyclic AMP (cAMP), are similar in the two groups. The loss in responsiveness of the mesenteric artery to isoproterenol was not explained by a change in beta receptor number in the vessels (29 +/- 4 in young rats vs. 31 +/- 7 fmol/mg of protein in the older rats). The maximal stimulation of cAMP accumulation by isoproterenol was lower in the older vessels; forskolin activated cAMP accumulation equally in the two groups. However, the vessels from the older rats were less sensitive to forskolin-induced vascular relaxation. Also, the ability of dibutyryl cAMP to promote vascular relaxation was diminished in the older vessels. These data suggest that the diminished cAMP accumulation in older vessels in response to isoproterenol might not necessarily in itself explain completely the reduced physiological response and that an additional defect in the beta adrenergic-mediated relaxation in the vascular smooth muscle of older rats may lie at the level of cAMP-dependent protein kinase activation or more distally.     

Cytoplasmic free [Ca2+] is not increased in the platelets of deoxycorticosterone-salt and spontaneously hypertensive rats

The cytoplasmic free calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) in the platelets of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR), Wistar-Kyoto rats (WKY), deoxycorticosterone-salt hypertensive rats (DOC) and normotensive Sprague-Dawley rats (SD) was measured with the fluorescent dye, quin-2-tetra-acetoxymethyl ester. No significant difference in platelet [Ca2+]i was found between SHR and WKY or between DOC and SD rats. No correlations were found between systolic blood pressure and [Ca2+]i. These results suggest that the elevation of platelet [Ca2+]i does not necessarily accompany hypertension in rats.     

Decline in beta adrenergic receptor-mediated vascular relaxation with aging in man

Beta adrenergic relaxation of vascular smooth muscle, mediated by cyclic AMP, is blunted with age in a variety of experimental animals. The applicability of these observations to man is uncertain. The dorsal hand vein technique provides an excellent method to examine the direct effects of aging on vascular responsiveness. Thirty-nine healthy male volunteers over the age range of 19 to 79 were studied. No differences in vascular responsiveness to phenylephrine, an alpha adrenergic agonist, were found for either the ED50 (dose producing 50% vasoconstriction) or Emax (maximum vasoconstriction attained). In marked contrast, vascular relaxation induced by isoproterenol, a beta adrenergic agonist, was significantly different in both the ED50 (dose producing 50% of maximum relaxation from a preconstricted state) and Emax (maximum relaxation attained). ED50 +/- S.E.M. for the youngest and oldest deciles were 8.9 +/- 2.3 and 60 +/- 17.0 ng/min, respectively (P less than .05); Emax +/- S.E.M. were 96.7 +/- 3.3 and 37.7 +/- 8.7%, respectively (P less than .001). Nitroglycerin, a smooth muscle relaxant whose effects are not mediated through the cyclic AMP system, was also used to examine the specificity of this blunted response to isoproterenol. Almost complete relaxation was achieved with the infusion of nitroglycerin in the older group. These results suggest that aging is associated with a specific decrease in beta adrenoreceptor-mediated vascular relaxation.     

Beta-2 adrenoceptor-mediated relaxation of the isolated human saphenous vein

On isolated strips of human saphenous vein, pretreated with 5 microM phenoxybenzamine and contracted with 10 mM KCl, the beta adrenoceptor mediating the relaxant effects of isoproterenol, procaterol and norepinephrine was characterized using the selective beta-1 adrenoceptor antagonist, bisoprolol, and the selective beta-2 adrenoceptor antagonist, ICI 118,551. All three agonists produced concentration-dependent relaxations of the isolated saphenous vein with an order of potency: procaterol (pD2 value, 7.69) greater than isoproterenol (pD2 value, 7.41) much greater than norepinephrine (pD2 value, 5.30). ICI 118,551 (3 X 10(-10) to 3 X 10(-9) M) was nearly 100 times more potent than bisoprolol (10(-7) to 10(-6) M) in antagonizing the relaxant effects of isoproterenol and procaterol. The slopes of the Schild plots for the antagonistic effects of ICI 118,551 and bisoprolol against isoproterenol- and procaterol-induced relaxations were not significantly different from unity indicating interaction with a homogeneous population of beta adrenoceptors. The pA2 value for ICI 118,551 amounted to 9.11 to 9.20 and for bisoprolol to 6.50 to 6.63. In addition, the concentration-response curve for the relaxant effect of norepinephrine was significantly shifted to the right by 10(-9) M ICI 118,551, but not affected by 10(-7) M bisoprolol. These results indicate that on the isolated strips of the human saphenous vein the beta adrenoceptor mediating relaxation is of the beta-2 subtype.     

Voluntary physical exercise-induced vascular effects in spontaneously hypertensive rats

Forced training has been shown to have beneficial vascular effects in various animal exercise models. In the present study, we explored possible physiological and molecular effects of voluntary physical exercise on various vascular beds. SHR (spontaneously hypertensive rats) performed voluntary exercise for 5 weeks in a computerized wheel cage facility. Ex vivo myograph studies revealed an increased sensitivity of the ACh (acetylcholine)-mediated vasodilation in resistance arteries of the exercised animals (ED50=15.0+/-3.5 nmol/l) compared with the controls (ED50=37.0+/-8.8 nmol/l; P=0.05). The exercise/control difference was abolished after scavenging reactive oxygen radicals. In conduit arteries, ACh induced a similar vasodilatory response in both groups. The in vivo aortic wall stiffness, assessed by means of Doppler tissue echography, was significantly lower in the exercising animals than in controls. This was demonstrated by significantly increased peak systolic aortic wall velocity (P=0.03) and the velocity time integral (P=0.01) in exercising animals compared with controls. The relative gene expression of eNOS (endothelial nitric oxide synthase) was similar in both groups of animals, whereas Cu/ZnSOD (copper/zinc superoxide dismutase) gene expression was significantly increased (+111%; P=0.0007) in the exercising animal compared with controls. In conclusion, voluntary physical exercise differentially improves vascular function in various vascular beds. Increased vascular compliance and antioxidative capacity may contribute to the atheroprotective effects associated with physical exercise in conduit vessels.     

Altered neuropeptide concentrations in spontaneously hypertensive rats: cause or consequence?

Changes in brain neuropeptide content in spontaneously hypertensive rats may be primarily related to the development of hypertension or may be secondary consequences of it. We have measured brain concentrations of beta-endorphin, Leu-enkephalin, arginine vasopressin (AVP) and oxytocin (OXT) in stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRSP) and in age-matched normotensive Wistar Kyoto (WKY) controls, as well as in SHRSP with normalized blood pressure by chronic treatment with clonidine. Opioid peptide contents were measured in 12-, 18- and 24-week-old rats. beta-Endorphin was measured in the neuro-intermediate and anterior lobes of the pituitary, the hypothalamus, mid-brain and brain stem; Leu-enkephalin in the neuro-intermediate lobe of the pituitary, hypothalamus, mid-brain, brain stem, as well as in the spinal cord and adrenal glands. AVP and OXT were measured in the neuro-intermediate lobe of the pituitary, hypothalamus, brain stem and spinal cord. beta-Endorphin in the neuro-intermediate lobe of the pituitary was significantly higher in 12- and 18-week-old SHRSP. Adrenal gland Leu-enkephalin was lower in SHRSP as compared with the WKY. OXT and AVP contents were markedly reduced in all brain regions of SHRSP except the neuro-intermediate lobe of the pituitary, where no significant changes were found. In no case did long-term antihypertensive treatment with clonidine reverse the altered peptide content in the SHRSP. We conclude that alterations in brain neuropeptide content in SHRSP are not secondary to hypertension. The blood pressure lowering activity of clonidine appears not to depend on major alterations of peptide concentrations. A genetic defect in the synthesis of adrenal enkephalins and hypothalamic OXT and AVP seems likely from these studies.     

Mesenteric vascular responses of young spontaneously hypertensive rats

Frequency-responses curves for nerve stimulation and dose-response curve for norepinephrine, 5-hydroxytryptamine potassium chloride, vasopressin and acetylcholine (ACh) were determined in isolated, perfused mesenteric vascular beds from young (approximately 5 weeks) spontanelouly hypertensive (SHR) and Wistar Kyoto rats. Although mean systolic blood pressure (measured by tail cuff plethysmography) was slightly higher in the SHR, this difference was not significant. Slopes and maximum responses were increased significantly for nerve stimulation and all agonists. The basal perfusion pressure was also significantly elevated in the SHR. These differences are consistent with existing evidence that structural changes occur in blood vessels of SHR at an early stage and probably precede development of hypertension. Such structural changes could therefore contribute to development of the hypertension. Cocaine (1 microM) markedly increased responses to nerve stimulation and bolus injections of norepinephrine in preparations from SHR with little or no effect on such responses in Wistar Kyoto preparations, a result consistent with the known greater density of noradrenergic nerves in SHR vasculature. In the presence of cocaine, there was unmasked a selective super-sensitivity (significantly lower ED50) to norepinephrine in the SHR. Thus SHR mesenteric vessels may possess an alteration in adrenoreceptors or their coupling to other cellular mechanisms. Responses to ACh revealed no indication of a deficient endothelial mediated relaxation. An altered media:lumen ratio of small arteries, hypernoradrenergic innervation and supersensitivity to the transmitter may contribute to development of hypertension.     

Low-protein diet impairs vascular relaxation in virgin and pregnant rats

Pregnancy is associated with increases in maternal cardiac output and plasma volume and a reduction in peripheral vascular resistance. Cardiac output and plasma volume are substantially reduced in pregnant rats fed a low-protein diet, but it is not known whether vascular function is also compromised. We have investigated vascular function in virgin and pregnant Wistar rats subjected to dietary protein restriction [9% (w/v) casein, compared with 18% (w/v) casein for controls]. The diets were fed to the groups for 18 days; in the pregnant rats, the diets were given from day 1 of pregnancy. Branches of the mesenteric arteries were studied on day 18 of the dietary period using myography. Significant reductions in sensitivity to acetylcholine occurred in vessels from virgin (P=0.04) and pregnant (P=0.01) rats that had consumed the 9% casein diet. In arteries from the virgin rats on the restricted diet there was also a significant reduction in sensitivity (P=0.0003) and maximum relaxation (P=0.009) to the NO donor spermine NONOate. Mean placental and fetal weights were significantly lower in the rats fed on 9% casein (P<0.0001 and P=0.005 respectively). Thus low-protein diets impair vasodilator responses in female rats. These effects may contribute to the poor cardiovascular adaptation to pregnancy and lower fetal weights associated with restricted protein intake.     

Myocardial and vascular actions of amiloride in spontaneously hypertensive rats

Experiments were conducted to characterize the cardiovascular actions of the potassium-sparing diuretic amiloride in spontaneously hypertensive and normotensive Wistar-Kyoto rats. Amiloride produced dose-dependent and sustained reductions in blood pressure in spontaneously hypertensive, but not Wistar-Kyoto rats. In intact spontaneously hypertensive rats, amiloride reduced blood pressure, heart rate and myocardial oxygen consumption, and increased simultaneously myocardial contractility. The antihypertensive response was unaltered by bilateral nephrectomy, atropine, cimetidine plus mepyramine, sulpiride and ouabain, but was prevented by phentolamine, hexamethonium and reserpine. Pressor responses to norepinephrine, tyramine, phenylephrine and clonidine were depressed significantly after amiloride, suggesting that amiloride interfered with alpha adrenoceptor-mediated vasoconstriction; vascular reactivity to arginine vasopressin, isoproterenol, histamine and acetylcholine was unaltered. The bradycardic response to amiloride persisted in all groups of animals in spite of surgical or pharmacological pretreatments; positive chronotropic responses to isoproterenol were unaltered by amiloride. The positive inotropic responses to amiloride were evident in the presence of bradycardia, and under conditions in which afterload remained constant or was allowed to decrease. The negative chronotropic and positive inotropic actions of amiloride were due to a direct action of the drug on myocardial tissues, and occurred independently of the antihypertensive effect.     

Vascular endothelial growth factor-mediated endothelium-dependent relaxation is blunted in spontaneously hypertensive rats

The vasodilatory effect of VEGF has not been characterized in the setting of hypertension. This study investigated the in vitro vasorelaxant effects of VEGF in organ chambers in the aorta of the adult (12-week-old) spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR), young (4-week-old) SHR without hypertension, and age-matched Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats compared with acetylcholine (ACh). Cumulative concentration-relaxation curves were established for VEGF (approximately 10(-12)-10(-8.5) M) and ACh (approximately 10(-10)-10(-5) M) in U46619 (10(-8) M)-induced contraction. VEGF induced endothelium-dependent relaxation that was significantly reduced in the adult SHR compared with the age-matched WKY control (87.8 +/- 2.8 versus 61.4 +/- 8.6%, P = 0.01). These responses were significantly attenuated by pretreatment with N(omega)-nitro-L-arginine (L-NNA, 300 microM) alone (SHR: 25.1 +/- 1.9%; WKY: 21.0 +/- 2.6%; P = 0.01) or indomethacin (7 microM) + L-NNA (SHR: 30.2 +/- 2.1%; WKY: 35.0 +/- 2.9%; P = 0.01). Further addition of oxyhemoglobin (20 microM) abolished the residual relaxation and reduced the relaxation induced by nitroglycerin. ACh induced similar responses to VEGF. In contrast, pretreatment with indomethacin alone enhanced VEGF- or ACh-induced relaxations and the effect was greater in the adult SHR than in WKY rats. In contrast to the adult SHR versus WKY rats, there were no significant differences of VEGF- or ACh-induced relaxations between young SHR and WKY rats. The results demonstrate that VEGF induces endothelium- or nitric oxide-dependent relaxation, which is blunted in the adult SHR. The mechanism of this impairment may be related to decreased release of NO although increased release of contracting factors from the dysfunctional endothelium may also be involved.     

A novel vascular smooth muscle chymase is upregulated in hypertensive rats

While greater than 80% of angiotensin II (Ang II) formation in the human heart and greater than 60% in arteries appears to result from chymase activity, no cardiovascular cell-expressed chymase has been previously reported. We now describe the cloning of a full-length cDNA encoding a novel chymase from rat vascular smooth muscle cells. The cDNA encompasses 953 nucleotides, encodes 247 amino acids, and exhibits 74% and 80% homology in amino acid sequence to rat mast cell chymase I and II, respectively. Southern blot analysis indicates that the rat vascular chymase is encoded by a separate gene. This chymase was induced in hypertrophied rat pulmonary arteries, with 11-fold and 8-fold higher chymase mRNA levels in aortic and pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells from spontaneously hypertensive than in corresponding tissues from normotensive rats. We assayed the activity of the endogenous enzyme and of a recombinant, epitope-tagged chymase in transfected smooth muscle cells and showed that Ang II production from Ang I can be inhibited with chymostatin, but not EDTA or captopril. Spontaneously hypertensive rats show elevated chymase expression and increased chymostatin-inhibitable angiotensin-converting activity, suggesting a possible role for this novel enzyme in the pathophysiology of hypertension.     

Heparin lowers blood pressure and vascular calcium uptake in hypertensive rats

Increased calcium uptake by vascular tissue, leading to elevated cytosolic calcium, has been implicated in the pathophysiology of hypertension. Heparin treatment of hypertensive rats has been known to lower blood pressure but its mechanism is not known. This study examined the effect of chronic heparin treatment on systolic blood pressure, aortic calcium and 87Rubidium (86Rb) uptake of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats. Starting at 12 weeks of age SHR and WKY rats were given either sodium heparin 300 units s.c. or equal amounts of saline once a day for a period of 6 weeks. At 18 weeks, systolic blood pressure, uptakes of calcium and 86Rb by aortae were significantly higher (p less than 0.01) in saline-treated SHR compared with heparin-treated SHR and WKY. Heparin treatment lowered the elevated calcium and 86Rb Uptake and blood pressure in SHR but had no effect on WKY. The parallel increase in systolic blood pressure and vascular calcium uptake suggests that increased calcium uptake mechanisms are associated with hypertension in SHR. Heparin appears to lower elevated blood pressure in SHR by lowering elevated vascular calcium uptake.     

Impaired endothelium-dependent relaxation in mesenteric arteries of reduced renal mass hypertensive rats.

Endothelium-dependent relaxation is not fully understood in volume-dependent models of hypertension. This study investigated the relaxation mediated by endothelium-derived nitric oxide (EDNO) and hyperpolarizing factor (EDHF) in superior mesenteric arteries from reduced renal mass hypertensive rats, an experimental model for volume-dependent hypertension. Hypertension was induced in male Wistar rats by subtotal nephrectomy and salt-loading (hypertensive group). The control group comprised rats that drank tap water after subtotal nephrectomy. Relaxation of isolated superior mesenteric arterial rings was investigated at the end of the 2-week study. In high K+-precontracted arterial rings, relaxation caused by acetylcholine (ACh) was markedly reduced in the hypertensive group compared with the findings for the control group (34+/-4% vs. 54+/-5% decrease in tension). In both groups, the relaxation was abolished by N(omega)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME), an inhibitor of nitric oxide synthase. In phenylephrine-precontracted arterial rings, relaxation caused by ACh was also small in the hypertensive group, while it was large in the control group (49 +/- 5% vs. 96 +/- 2%). Superfusion of L-NAME inhibited most of the relaxation caused by ACh, but the arteries still exhibited relaxation. Apamin, a blocker of Ca-dependent K+ channel, together with L-NAME further inhibited the residual relaxation. The relaxation inhibited by apamin was also reduced in the hypertensive group. We conclude that the relaxation inhibited by L-NAME was mediated by EDNO, while that inhibited by apamin was mediated by EDHF. Endothelium-independent relaxation caused by nitroprusside and diazoxide was normal in the hypertensive group. The relaxation mediated by both EDNO and EDHF was depressed in the arteries of reduced renal mass hypertensive rats as the result of an arterial endothelial abnormality.     

老龄化自发性高血压模型大鼠与SD大鼠左冠状动脉的应力松弛特性
