Microvascular tone in a skeletal muscle of spontaneously hypertensive rats.
We studied the degree of arteriolar smooth muscle constriction in the spinotrapezius muscle microcirculation of spontaneously hypertensive rats and their normotensive controls, Wistar-Kyoto rats. The constriction was expressed in the form of a nondimensional tone as the difference between steady state and dilated diameter (after papaverine treatment) divided by the dilated diameter. Both animal...
متن کاملIncreased spontaneous tone in renal arteries of spontaneously hypertensive rats.
The spontaneous tone of vascular smooth muscle is augmented in hypertension. The present study examined the role of nitric oxide (NO), cyclooxygenase (COX), thromboxane A(2)/prostanoid (TP) and PGE(2)/prostanoid (EP-1) receptors, reactive oxygen species, and large-conductance Ca(2+)-activated K(+) (BK(Ca)) channels in the regulation of spontaneous tone in renal arteries of young and mature Wist...
متن کاملAlterations in flow-dependent vasomotor tone in spontaneously hypertensive rats.
We studied the effect of endothelium on the flow-induced response of conductance arteries and the resistance arteriolar network in an in situ model of perfused mesenteric artery in normotensive Wistar-Kyoto and spontaneously hypertensive rats. The mesenteric network was perfused with a Tyrode's albumin solution. The diameter of a conductance mesenteric artery was measured using a video camera s...
متن کاملMicrovascular alterations in adult conscious spontaneously hypertensive rats.
The dorsal skin flap technique was used to study skeletal muscle microcirculation in conscious 10-12-week-old spontaneously hypertensive rats and normotensive Wistar-Kyoto control rats. Videorecordings were made for off-line analysis of consecutive segments of the vascular bed. Resting diameters were significantly smaller in spontaneously hypertensive rats than in Wistar-Kyoto rats at the first...
متن کاملLong-term microvascular response to hydralazine in spontaneously hypertensive rats.
Chronic microcirculatory alterations produced by prolonged use of a vasoactive drug were repeatedly observed in the same skeletal muscle vessels of the dorsal microcirculatory chamber. Arterioles and venules with diameters averaging from 70 to 90 microns, the size range contributing most to peripheral vascular resistance, were measured daily for 6 days to determine differences in diameter, tort...
