Hypotensive response in spontaneously hypertensive rats following microinjection of alpha-methylnoradrenaline in the caudal brain-stem
Abstract
Local microinjection of 1.25 nmol (-)-alpha-methylnoradrenaline in the A2-region of the nucleus tractus solitarii (NTS) caused a decrease of blood pressure and heart rate in both spontaneous hypertensive rats (SHR) and Wistar-Kyoto (W/K) rats. Although the maximal responses in both strains did not differ, the decrease in blood pressure lasted longer in the SHR. These results do not support the concept of a diminished sensitivity of catecholaminergic receptors in the NTS of SHR to alpha-methylnoradrenaline.
