Objective

Cysteinyl leukotrienes (cysLT) are pro-inflammatory and vasoactive products suspected to be involved in the regulation of vascular tone and blood pressure in hypertension.

Design

We investigated, in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR), the involvement of cysLT in the in-vivo regulation of blood pressure and the in-vitro endothelium-dependent contraction to acetylcholine in isolated aorta.

Methods

SHR and Wistar-Kyoto rats (WKY) were orally treated for 3 weeks with either the cysLT biosynthesis inhibitor MK-886 (0.1 mg/ml) or vehicle. After mean arterial blood pressure (MABP) measurement, aortic ring preparations were removed from all groups of animals, and contractions and relaxations were monitored subsequent to stimulation with acetylcholine.

Results

MABP was higher in SHR. Chronic treatment with MK-886 did not alter MABP in either SHR or WKY. In the presence of the N-nitro-L-arginine (L-NA, 100 micromol/l), and on prostaglandin F2alpha (PGF2alpha)-induced tone, acetylcholine evoked concentration-dependent contractions in intact aortic rings from SHR only. Pretreatment with either MK-886 (10 micromol/l), the 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) inhibitor AA861 (10 micromol/l), or the cysLT1 receptor antagonist MK571 (1 micromol/l) reduced (P < 0.05) acetylcholine-induced contractions in intact aortic rings from SHR only. Acetylcholine-induced contractions were weaker (P < 0.01) in SHR chronically treated with MK-886 than in SHR. In the presence of L-NA, leukotriene (LT) D4 induced greater (P < 0.05) concentration-dependent contractions in aortic rings from SHR than from WKY. MK571 abolished LTD4-evoked contractions.

Conclusion

These data suggested that 5-LO-derived products, through the activation of cysLT1 receptors, could be involved in the endothelium-dependent contraction to acetylcholine in aorta from SHR but not in the regulation of MABP in SHR."xsd:string
