Abstract

Three recent renal denervation studies in both drug-naïve and drug-treated hypertensive patients demonstrated a significant reduction of ambulatory blood pressure compared with respective sham control groups. Improved trial design, selection of relevant patient cohorts, and optimized interventional procedures have likely contributed to these positive findings. However, substantial variability in the blood pressure response to renal denervation can still be observed and remains a challenging and important problem. The International Sympathetic Nervous System Summit was convened to bring together experts in both experimental and clinical medicine to discuss the current evidence base, novel developments in our understanding of neural interplay, procedural aspects, monitoring of technical success, and others. Identification of relevant trends in the field and initiation of tailored and combined experimental and clinical research efforts will help to address remaining questions and provide much-needed evidence to guide clinical use of renal denervation for hypertension treatment and other potential indications.

Abstract

Sex and age differences in the sympathetic control of resting blood pressure (BP) may be due to differences in the transduction of sympathetic nerve activity (SNA) into vascular tone. Current methods for dynamically quantifying transduction focus on the relationship between SNA and vasoconstriction during a pressor stimulus, which increases BP and may be contra-indicated in patients. We describe a simple analytical method for quantifying transduction under resting conditions. We performed linear regression analysis of binned muscle SNA burst areas against diastolic BP (DBP). We assessed whether the slope of this relationship reflects the transduction of SNA into DBP. To evaluate this, we investigated whether this measure captures differences in transduction in different populations. Specifically, we (1) quantified transduction in young men (YM), young women (YW), older men (OM) and postmenopausal women (PMW); and (2) measured changes in transduction during β-blockade using propranolol in YW, YM and PMW. YM had a greater transduction vs. OM (0.10 ± 0.01mmHg/ %·s, n = 23vs. 0.06 ± 0.01mmHg/ %·s, n = 18; P = 0.003). Transduction was lowest in YW (0.02 ± 0.01 mmHg/%·s, n = 23) and increased during β-blockade (0.11 ± 0.01 mmHg/%·s; P < 0.001). Transduction in PMW (0.07 ± 0.01 mmHg/%·s, n = 23) was greater compared to YW (P = 0.001), and was not altered during β-blockade (0.06 ± 0.01 mmHg/%·s; P = 0.98). Importantly, transduction increased in women with age, but decreased in men. Transduction in women intersected that in men at 55 ± 1.5 years. This measure of transduction captures age- and sex-differences in the sympathetic regulation of DBP and may be valuable in quantifying transduction in disease. In particular, this measure may help target treatment strategies in specific hypertensive sub-populations.

26. Brain stem P[O.sub.2] and pH of the working heart-brain stem preparation during vascular perfusion with aqueous medium

Abstract

The rat working heart-brain stem preparation (WHBP) is an in situ preparation having many of the advantages associated with in vitro preparations while retaining cardiovascular response functionality and an eupnoeic respiratory motor pattern. The preparation is perfused arterially with an aqueous medium having a much lower oxygen-carrying capacity than blood. To evaluate the efficacy of the artificial perfusion in providing adequate gas exchange within the brain stem, we used polarographic P[O.sub.2] and pH microelectrodes to determine the tissue P[O.sub.2] and pH of the medulla oblongata at various depths. When the perfusate was equilibrated with 5% [CO.sub.2] and 95% [O.sub.2], average tissue P[O.sub.2] was 294 Torr and no hypoxic areas were encountered. Tissue pH was remarkably uniform throughout the tissue, and on average was only 0.04 [+ or -] 0.02 pH units more acidic than that of the perfusate. Increasing the P[CO.sub.2] of the perfusate increased tissue P[O.sub.2] and decreased arterial resistance. Decreasing perfusate P[CO.sub.2] (while keeping pH constant) decreased tissue P[O.sub.2] and reduced the respiratory activity. These results suggest that arterial P[CO.sub.2], independent of arterial pH, is an essential variable in determining both respiratory drive and cerebrovascular perfusion. We conclude that the medulla of the WHBP is oxygenated and within a physiological pH, which accounts for the eupneic pattern of respiratory motor activity it generates. Furthermore, this preparation may be a useful model for exploring mechanisms of central chemoreception as well as the dynamics of the cerebral vasculature responses following changes in blood gases. cardiovascular; respiration; breathing; eupnea

Abstract

To investigate the contribution of central vasopressin receptors to blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR) response to stress we injected non-peptide selective V-1a (SR49059), V-1b (SSR 149415), V-2 (SR 121463) receptor antagonists, diazepam or vehicle in the lateral cerebral ventricle of conscious freely moving rats stressed by blowing air on their heads for 2 min. Cardiovascular effects of stress were evaluated by analyzing maximum increase of BP and HR (MAX), latency of maximum response (LAT), integral under BP and HR curve (integral), duration of their recovery and spectral parameters of BP and HR indicative of increased sympathetic outflow (LFBP and LF/HFHR). Moreover, the increase of serum corticosterone was measured. Exposure to air-jet stress induced simultaneous increase in BP and HR followed by gradual decline during recovery while LFBP oscillation remained increased as well as serum corticosterone level. Rats pre-treated with vasopressin receptor antagonists were not sedated while diazepam induced sedation that persisted during exposure to stress. V-1a, V-1b and V-2, receptor antagonists applied separately did not modify basal values of cardiovascular parameters but prevented the increase in integral(BP). In addition, V-1b and V-2 receptor antagonists reduced BPMAX whereas V-1a, V-1b antagonist and diazepam reduced HRMAX induced by exposure to air-jet stress. All drugs shortened the recovery period, prevented the increase of LFBP without affecting the increase in serum corticosterone levels. Results indicate that vasopressin receptors located within the central nervous system mediate, in part, the cardiovascular response to air-jet stress without affecting either the neuroendocrine component or inducing sedation. They support the view that the V-1b receptor antagonist may be of potential therapeutic value in reducing arterial pressure induced by stress-related disorders.
