Serum cholinesterase activity and arterial blood pressure.

چکیده
Conflicting data have appeared in the literature regarding serum cholinesterase and blood pressure. The studies reported here were undertaken to establish or refute the existence of a direct relationship between these two factors. Two types of studies were performed. First, serum cholinesterase activity was measured in 63 unselected hypertensive patients. Second, a selected group of seven hypertensive patients and three healthy subjects was studied writh a variety of drugs known to influence either blood pressure or serum cholinesterase. Results indicate that no direct relationship exists between blood pressure and serum cholinesterase and that fluctuations in these two factors

The proliferation of smooth muscle cells in the arterial wall (VSMC) is considered to play a key role in the development of atherosclerosis. To investigate the possible contribution of "stress" (experimentally-induced) to this process, blood from healthy volunteers, ages 21 to 65, screened to exclude major risk factors for coronary heart disease, was assayed for mitogenic activity after the sub...
