Abstrakt: Background: Hypertension is associated with cardiovascular dysfunction, dysregulation of the antioxidant system and alteration of the level of some enzymes in the metabolic pathway. The possible modulatory effect of acute renal denervation (ARD) on cardiovascular function and the antioxidant system is still a subject of intense debate. This study sought to ascertain the ameliorative effects of ARD on cardiovascular parameters, antioxidant system, creatine kinase and lactate dehydrogenase levels.
Methods: Thirty-six Sprague-Dawley rats (5-6 weeks old) were divided into 6 groups of 6 animals each consisting of Normal Salt, High Salt, Normal Salt + Sham Denervation, High Salt + Sham Denervation, Normal Salt + Renal Denervation and High Salt + Renal Denervation. Induction of hypertension with 8 % salt in the diet lasted for 8 weeks. Renal or Sham denervation was thereafter done on selected groups. At the end of the experimental period, cardiovascular parameters, plasma antioxidant status, plasma creatine kinase (CK) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels were assessed. Significance level was set at p < 0.05.
Results: Salt-loading significantly increased systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), mean arterial blood pressure (MABP), rate pressure product (RPP) while reducing superoxide dismutase (SOD), reduced glutathione (GSH) and catalase (CAT). Acute renal denervation significantly (p < 0.0001) reduced SBP, DBP, MABP, RPP, LDH and norepinephrine level while increasing SOD, GSH and CAT. ARD did not significantly alter CK level.
Conclusion: Acute renal denervation, by reducing sympathetic activity, ameliorates cardiovascular and antioxidant functions as well as reduces LDH level without significantly altering CK level in salt-induced hypertension.
