Spontaneuosly hypertensive rats (SHR) have been shown to exhibit several alterations in function of the intrabrain vasopressinergic system. The present study was designed to find out whether centrally administered vasopressin (AVP) may influence the cardiovascular adaptation to hypotensive hypovolemia in SHR rats. Two series of experiments were performed on conscious 17 SHR rats chronically implanted with lateral cerebral ventricle (LCV) cannulas and with femoral artery catheters. Mean arterial pressure (MAP) and heart rate (HR) were monitored before and after arterial bleeding (1,3% body weight) performed during LCV infusion of 1) artificial cerebrospinal fluid 5µl/hour (aCSF); and 2) arginine vasopressin, 100ng/hour/5µl of aCSF (AVP). Central administration of aCSF and AVP had no effect on MAP and HR under resting conditions. Hemorrhage evoked significant hypotension (p<0.001) and bradycardia (p<0.001). During central infusion of AVP hemorrhage resulted in significantly greater hypotension than during central infusion of aCSF alone (p<0,05). The results provide evidence that centrally applied vasopressin significantly modulates cardivascular adjustments to hypotensive hemorrhage in SHR.

In short term experiments angiotensin II (Ang II) is a potent stimulant of thirst, however it is not known whether prolonged activation of the renin-angiotensin system is associated with chronic alteration of water or food intake. Renin transgenic rats TGRmRen(2)27 (TGR) exhibit significant elevation of AngII in the brain regions involved in regulation of body fluid balance. The purpose of the present study was to find out whether TGR rats manifest also different water (WI) and food (FI) intake and renal excretory functions in comparison to their parent Sprague Dawley (SD) strain. To this end 24h WI and FI as well as urine excretion (Vu) and urinary outputs of solutes (Cosm), sodium (UNaV) and potassium (UKV) were compared under baseline conditions in 16 TGR and 15 SD rats having free access to water and food. In 15 TGR and 17 SD rats effect of 24h dehydration on water intake was investigated. Under baseline conditions TGR rats consumed significantly greater amount of food and water than SD rats. Vu, UNaV and UKV were not significantly different in both strains. Cumulative water intakes in SD and TGR rats subjected to 24h dehydration did not differ. The results reveal that under baseline conditions TGR rats manifest greater food and water intakes than SD rats whereas stimulation of thirst by water deprivation is similar in both strains. The results suggest that the ingestive behavior may be chronically altered by upregulation of the renin-angiotensin system.

Previous studies revealed that the brain angiotensinergic, vasopressinergic and nitrergic systems are involved in regulation of blood pressure and that their function is altered in various forms of hypertension. The purpose of our investigation was to determine whether expression of AT1a angiotensin receptors (AT1aR) mRNA, V1a vasopressin receptors (V1aR) mRNA and neuronal nitric oxide synthase (NOS1) mRNA is altered in the brain of rats with the renovascular hypertension. Eight male Sprague Dawley (SD 2K,1C) rats were subjected to constriction of the left renal artery in order to produce the renovascular hypertension whereas nine SD rats underwent the sham surgery. In both groups blood pressure was determined before and after the surgery. Four weeks after the surgery the brain fragments were harvested for determination of mRNA expression. Competitive PCR method was applied for relative quantitative analysis of V1aR mRNA, AT1aR mRNA and NOS1 mRNA in the preoptic, diencephalic, mesencephalopontine, medullary and cerebellar fragments of the brain. Blood pressure was significantly higher in the 2K,1C than in the sham operated rats. In the preoptic, mesencephalopontine and medullary regions AT1aR mRNA expression was significantly lower in the 2K,1C rats than in the sham operated rats. The 2K,1C rats manifested also significantly higher expression of V1aR mRNA and NOS1 mRNA in the preoptic brain region in comparison to the sham operated rats. The study provides evidence for significant changes of expression of AT1aR mRNA, V1aR mRNA and NOS1 mRNA in the specific brain regions of rats with the renovascular hypertension.

Angiotensin-(1-7) (Ang-[1-7]) is present in the brain of normotensive Sprague Dawley (SD) rats, and its hypothalamic content is elevated in TGRmRen2(27) rats (TGR) with renin dependent transgenic hypertension. The purpose of the present study was to determine the role of intrabrain Ang-(1-7) in the regulation of cardiovascular functions in SD and TGR rats under resting conditions and during haemodynamic challenge produced by rapid bleeding. Two groups of experiments were performed on conscious SD and TGR rats that were chronically instrumented with a lateral cerebral ventricle (LCV) cannula and an intraarterial catheter. Blood pressure (MAP) and heart rate period (Hp = distance between two systolic peaks) were continuously monitored: 1) under resting conditions during an LCV infusion of either artificial cerebrospinal fluid (aCSF, 5µl/hr) or Ang-(1-7) in aCSF (100 pmol/5µl/hr), and 2) before and after haemorrhage performed during LCV infusion of either aCSF or Ang-(1-7) antagonist (A-779, 4nmol/5µl/hr). Cerebroventricular infusion of Ang-(1-7) did not affect baseline MAP in the SD rats but it caused a significant decrease in blood pressure in the TGR rats. In the control experiments, haemorrhage significantly reduced MAP in the SD and TGR rats and heart rate in the TGR rats. Cerebroventricular infusion of Ang-(1-7) antagonist eliminated posthaemorrhagic hypotension in both strains and bradycardia in the TGR rats. The results indicate that intrabrain Ang-(1-7) may contribute to posthaemorrhagic hypotension and bradycardia. Moreover, the manner in which it centrally regulates the cardiovascular functions in the SD and TGR rats may be considerably different.

The myocardial infarct causes prolonged activation of the renin-angiotensin system and profoundly influences cardiac performance and renal excretory capabilities. The aim of the present study was to determine whether the myocardial infarct is also associated with an altered expression of AT1a receptors (AT1aR) mRNA in the heart and the kidney. To this end male Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected either to the left coronary artery ligation or to the sham surgery. Four weeks after the surgery the animals were sacrificed. In 11 infarcted and 10 sham-operated rats expression of AT1aR mRNA in the walls of the left and right ventricle of the heart, and in the renal cortex and renal medulla was determined by semiquantitative PCR method. In another group of 10 infarcted and 14 sham-operated rats the diameter of cardiomyocytes in the left and right cardiac ventricle was determined. The size of the infarct in the rats used for mRNA determination and for morphometric measurements was equal to 29.4 ± 1.8% and to 31.0 ± 1.2 % of the left ventricular wall, respectively. Expression of AT1aR mRNA was significantly greater in the left (P< 0.01) and right ventricle (P<0.03) of the heart in the infarcted than in the sham operated rats. AT1aR mRNA expression was also significantly greater (P<0.02) in the renal medulla of the infarcted rats than in the renal medulla of the sham operated rats whereas no significant difference was found in the renal cortex. The myocardial infarct was associated with a significant increase of diameter of cardiomyocytes of the left ventricle of the heart (P < 0.0001), however there was no significant correlation between changes in AT1aR mRNA expression and diameter of cardiomyocytes. The results provide evidence that the myocardial infarct results in significant and prolonged upregulation of AT1a receptors mRNA expression in the heart and in the medullary region of the kidney.

The purpose of the study was to determine effect of high sodium intake on fluid and electrolyte turnover and heart remodeling in the cardiac failure elicited by myocardial infarction (MI). The experiments were performed on four groups of Sprague Dawley rats maintained on food containing 0.45% NaCl and drinking either water (groups 1, 2) or 1% NaCl (groups 3, 4). Groups 1 and 3 were sham-operated while in groups 2 and 4 MI was produced by the coronary artery ligation. In each group food and fluid as well as sodium intake, urine (Vu), sodium (UNaV), potassium (UKV) and solutes (UosmV) excretion were determined before and four weeks after the surgery. Size of the infarct, left ventricle (LV) weight and diameter of LV and right ventricle (RV) myocytes were determined during post-mortem examination. Before the surgery groups 3 and 4 ingested significantly more fluid and sodium, had higher Vu, UNaV, UKV and UosmV than the respective groups 1 and 2. In groups 2 and 4 MI resulted in significant decrease in Vu, UNaV and UosmV in comparison to the pre-surgical level. In Group 4 MI resulted also in a significant decrease of food and sodium intake. The MI size did not differ in groups 2 and 4 while diameter of LV myocytes was significantly greater in groups 2 and 4 than in groups 1 and 3, and in group 4 than in group 2. The study reveals that prolonged high sodium consumption increases fluid and electrolyte turnover both in the sham and in the MI rats and that the MI causes decrease in food and sodium intake in rats on high but not on regular sodium intake. In addition high sodium diet promotes development of greater post-MI hypertrophy of the LV myocytes.
