The study was carried out in 30 subjects with mild primary hypertension and in 82 normotensive age-matched volunteers, 18-20 years of age. Hyperoxia test was used to withdraw the tonic chemoreceptor reflex drive. The following circulatory and respiratory effects of short lasting hyperoxia were observed in the hypertensive group and in most of the normotensive subjects yet with a family background of hypertension: a decrease in the mean arterial pressure, in total peripheral vascular resistance, and in forearm vascular resistance, and a significantly greater reduction of the resting ventilation as compared to the normotensive group. Our results suggest that the augmented arterial chemoreceptor drive is one of the mechanisms responsible for the elevated arterial blood pressure and total peripheral resistance in early human hypertension. The positive response to hyperoxia test in healthy subjects with a family background of hypertension suggests a familial occurrence of the hyperactivity of the arterial chemoreceptors. |
