Popis: | Previously, we found that the nitrate synthesized from glycerin, 2-nitrate-1,3-dibuthoxypropan (NDBP), increased NO levels in rat aortic smooth muscle cells, inducing vasorelaxation in mesenteric artery. However, its effects on blood pressure and heart rate as well as on autonomic function were not investigated. This study evaluated the action of NDBP on these cardiovascular parameters in spontaneously hypertensive (SHR) and Wistar Kyoto (WKY) rats. We found that NDBP causes a biphasic response: hypotension and bradycardia followed by hypertension and tachycardia in WKY and SHR rats. Atropine (2mg/kg) blunted the hypotension induced by NDBP (15 mg/kg) in WKY and SHR (-75 ± 9 vs -12 ± 3 mmHg, n=6; -101 ± 6 vs -7 ± 2 bpm, n=6; respectively, p |
