Protection of cavernous tissue in male spontaneously hypertensive rats. Beyond blood pressure control.
Male erectile dysfunction is increased in prevalence in patients with hypertension. Previous experiments from our group demonstrated morphologic changes in erectile tissue from male spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). The aim of the present study was to determine whether blood pressure (BP) control is enough to preserve cavernous tissue from the deleterious effect of arterial hypertension. E...
متن کاملCirculatory changes during pregnancy in spontaneously and renal hypertensive rats.
1. Mean arterial pressure, heart rate, cardiac output (dye-dilution technique), stroke volume, total peripheral resistance (TPR), utero-placental blood supply (microsphere technique) and foetal weights were determined 2 days before expected birth in normotensive control (NC) rats, spontaneously hypertensive (SH) rats, rats with short-standing renal hypertension induced early in pregnancy and ra...
متن کاملErythrocytosis in spontaneously hypertensive rats.
During the study of an inbred strain of Wistar rats which spontaneously develop hypertension when they reach a weight of approximately 150 g, it was found that these animals also develop an erythrocytosis. A significant increase in red cell count was observed in spontaneously hypertensive (SH) rats (8-11 x 10(6) RBC/mm(3)) when compared with normotensive rats (6-7 x 10(6) RBC/mm(3)) of the same...
متن کاملSpontaneously Hypertensive Rats
We have investigated whether differences seen in the pharmacological and morphological properties of mesenteric resistance vessels from spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) controls are also present in vessels from young SHR and WKY rats in which there is little difference in blood pressure (BP). Segments of small arteries (lumen diameter 150 ̂ m) were taken ...
متن کاملSpontaneously Hypertensive Rats
The endothelium-dependent vascular relaxation to acetylcholine (ACh) in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) may be impaired because of an imbalance of endothelium-derived relaxing factor and contracting factor. However, the role of the endothelium-dependent hyperpolarization remains undetermined. We examined the ACh-induced hyperpolarization and its contribution to relaxation in arteries of S...
