چکیده

We hypothesized that caloric restriction (CR)-induced hypotension would correlate with increased sodium excretion through an atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP)-dependent mechanism. To test this hypothesis, the cardiovascular parameters of c57/Bl mice were measured with radiotelemetry while urine was collected. The 23-h mean blood pressure (BP) dropped from 108.6 +/- 1.8 to 92.7 +/- 2.4 mmHg, and 23-h heart rate dropped from 624 +/- 5 to 426 +/- 13 beats/min over 7 days of CR at 29 degrees C. Contrary to our hypothesis, urine sodium excretion decreased by 55% by day 7 of CR. Consistent with decreased sodium excretion was the drop in plasma ANP (from 82.4 +/- 4.3 to 68.0 +/- 5.8 pg/ml). To explore the possibility that CR lowers BP through an ANP receptor-dependent mechanism that is independent of its effect on sodium retention, we measured the cardiovascular parameters of mice deficient in the ANP receptor (NPR1(-/-)) or the ANP clearance receptor (NPR3(-/-)). Mean BP fell from 117.1 +/- 3.9 to 108.0 +/- 4.7 mmHg in the NPR1(-/-) mice and from 87.0 +/- 2.4 to 78.4 +/- 1.7 mmHg in the NPR3(-/-) mice during CR. These data indicate that the hypotension induced by CR does not depend on increased sodium excretion. Rather, it appears that the mouse responds to the low BP induced by CR with an increase in sodium reabsorption. Furthermore, circulating ANP levels and data from NPR1(-/-) and NPR3(-/-) mice suggest that the ANP pathway may not be involved in the cardiovascular response to CR.

Altered leptin signaling is sufficient, but not required, for hypotension associated with caloric restriction.

Caloric restriction of mammals leads to decreases in blood pressure and heart rate. Although relevant clinically, the mechanisms involved, in terms of hormones and signaling pathways invoked, are currently not known. Circumstantial evidence suggests that leptin signaling may be involved with the bradycardia and hypotension associated with caloric restriction. This hypothesis was specifically te...

Dbh(-/-) mice are hypotensive, have altered circadian rhythms, and have abnormal responses to dieting and stress.

We used mice deficient in dopamine beta-hydroxylase [Dbh(-/-)] and their littermate controls [Dbh(+/-)] to examine the role of epinephrine (Epi) and norepinephrine (NE) in the maintenance of cardiovascular parameters during 7 days of caloric restriction and acute exposure to environmental stress. Cardiovascular parameters of the mice were monitored using blood pressure radiotelemeters at an amb...

Activation-Induced Apoptosis in T cells: Effect of Age and Caloric Restriction

We have previously shown that the proliferative response of T cells to antigenic or mitogenic stimulus decreased with age and that caloric resection (CR) attenuated the age-related decline in proliferation and IL-2 expression. Because activation-induced apoptosis is known to regulate cell proliferation and eliminate the high number of activated cells during an immune response, it was of interes...
