Abstract: | Capsaicin-induced increases in heart rate and coronary flow were blocked by N(G)-nitro-L-Arg-methyl ester (30 mM) in Langendorff-perfused guinea-pig hearts. Neither heart rate nor coronary flow changed by capsaicin in hearts from animals made tolerant to the hypotensive effect of 30 microg/kg nitroglycerin by the administration of 50 mg/kg nitroglycerin subcutaneously 4 times a day over 3 days. We conclude that the effector function of sensory nerves may deteriorate in nitrate tolerance. |
