To investigate the effect of inhibition of cerebral Na+, K+-ATPase on cardiovascular regulation ouabain was injected into the lateral ventricle or the posterior hypothalamus in either conscious or urethane anaesthetised, deoxycorticosterone-salt hypertensive (DOCA) and sham operated (sham) rats. Ouabain injected intracerebroventricularly produced dose dependent vasopressor responses and tachycardia in the conscious rat; the magnitude of the pressor response was consistently larger in DOCA than in sham rats. In anaesthetised rats the pressor responses were accompanied by corresponding increases in abdominal sympathetic nerve activity. Thus the magnitude of the pressor responses, tachycardia, and the increases in nerve activity was again significantly greater in DOCA than in sham rats. Intrahypothalamic injections of ouabain produced pressor responses that were accompanied by consistent increases in both heart rate and abdominal sympathetic nerve activity in anaesthetised rats. In contrast to the intracerebroventricular injections the percentage increases from baseline blood pressure were significantly greater in sham than in DOCA rats at 5 min after injection.These results indicate that the centrally induced vasopressor response to ouabain, via the periventricular or bulbospinal system or both, is increased in DOCA-salt hypertensive rats whereas the pressor mechanism via the posterior hypothalamus is suppressed in DOCA rats.
