The Actions of Dopamine on the Blood Pressure and Heart Rate of Conscious Hypertensive Rats: Evidence for Reduced Dopaminergic Activity in Rats of the Japanese Strains

Abstract: The effects of intracerebroventricularly (icv) and intravenously (iv) administered dopamine (DA) on mean arterial pressure (MAP) and heart rate were investigated in conscious spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR), stroke-prone SHR (spSHR) and normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rat of Japanese strains, genetically hypertensive (GHR) and normotensive (NT-NZ) rat of New Zealand strains, Sprague-Dawley (SD) rat, and left renal artery stenosed hypertensive WKY (WKYLRAS) and SD (SDLRAS) rats. Icv DA (0.0125-0.4 mg/kg) c… Show more

“…Aside from histamine and MCP that account for all of the obvious undesired effects, most of the components of BV have clearly been associated with detrimental effects. Dopamine, among other undesired properties, affects the heart rate and increases the blood pressure (8); apamin can act as a potent neurotoxin (9,10), but also functions as a K ϩ channel blocker that interferes with NO-induced contractile activity of the myometrium (11). Hyaluronidases degrade, among other things, the protective hyaluronan coating of cells and contribute to the generation of undesired hyaluronan fragments (12).…”
