Abstract/OtherAbstract:

Experiments were performed on conscious, male Sprague-Dawley rats to determine whether cyclooxygenase inhibition affects the pressor response to exogenous vasopressin. The rise in arterial blood pressure was tested in response to 1.0, 2.5, 5.0, and 12.5 mU synthetic arginine vasopressin both before and following cyclooxygenase inhibition with either meclofenamate or the structurally dissimilar inhibitor ibuprofen. In addition, time control experiments were also performed where only the saline vehicle for the drugs was administered. In all animals tested, the increase in arterial pressure in response to the highest three concentrations of vasopressin was greater following cyclooxygenase inhibition than before, while the saline vehicle had no effect. The baroreceptor-mediated bradycardia accompanying the rise in blood pressure was variable, but unaffected by meclofenamate or ibuprofen. It is concluded that vasodilator prostaglandins are released in response to pressor levels of vasopressin, which act to modulate the pressor response of the peptide. |
