P2X1 Receptor-Mediated Vasoconstriction of Afferent Arterioles in Angiotensin II–Infused Hypertensive Rats Fed a High-Salt Diet

Experiments tested the hypothesis that P2 receptor reactivity is impaired in angiotensin (Ang) II hypertensive rats fed an 8%NaCl diet (Ang II+HS). Juxtamedullary afferent arteriolar autoregulatory behavior was determined over a pressure range of 65 to 200 mm Hg. Arteriolar responsiveness to P2X1 (β...

Zusammenfassung:Experiments tested the hypothesis that P2 receptor reactivity is impaired in angiotensin (Ang) II hypertensive rats fed an 8%NaCl diet (Ang II+HS). Juxtamedullary afferent arteriolar autoregulatory behavior was determined over a pressure range of 65 to 200 mm Hg. Arteriolar responsiveness to P2X1 (β,γ-methylene ATP) or P2Y2 receptor (uridine triphosphate) activation was determined in vitro. Systolic blood pressure averaged 126±3 and 225±4 mm Hg in control and Ang II+HS rats, respectively (P
