Abstract
1 In anaesthetized rats, injection of prostaglandin E(2) (0.5-5.0 mug/kg i.v.) caused a dose-dependent vasodepressor response. The magnitude of response was significantly greater in spontaneously hypertensive rats than in normotensive rats.2 In spontaneously hypertensive rats, the magnitude of the prostaglandin-induced depressor response was closely correlated with blood pressure. The higher the blood pressure, the greater was the response evoked by prostaglandin.3 In spontaneously hypertensive rats, a combination of guanethidine plus hydralazine reduced both blood pressure and prostaglandin-induced depressor responses.4 Spontaneously hypertensive rats and normotensive rats did not differ in the magnitude of their vasodepressor responses to intravenously administered acetylcholine or isoprenaline.Entities:
