Total [3H]-inositol phosphate formation was measured in cultured aortic smooth muscle cells from 6 and 14 week spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and Wistar Kyoto (WKY) normotensive rats. Basal inositol phosphate formation was significantly increased in cells cultured from SHR compared to WKY at both 6 and 14 weeks as was basal phosphatidylinositol formation. This difference in basal values was apparent after 9 h or more incubation with [3H]-myoinositol. Both endothelin-1 and noradrenaline stimulated inositol phosphate formation was unchanged in cultured smooth muscle cells from 6-week SHR compared to WKY. In cultured smooth muscle cells from 14-week SHR a decrease was observed in endothelin-1 stimulated inositol phosphate formation compared to controls. Noradrenaline stimulated inositol phosphate formation was increased in cultured cells from 14 week SHR. Endothelin-1 and noradrenaline stimulated inositol phosphate formation does not appear to be involved in the development (at 6 weeks) of hypertension in this model. However, in established hypertension (14 weeks) cells from SHR have altered total [3H] inositol phosphate formation in response to stimulation with noradrenaline and endothelin-1 although these changes are in opposite directions. Therefore, in cultured smooth muscle cells from 14-week rats noradrenaline and endothelin-1 appear to be regulated independently with regard to their effects on the phosphatidylinositol cycle.

D006973 Hypertension Persistently high systemic arterial BLOOD PRESSURE. Based on multiple readings (BLOOD PRESSURE DETERMINATION), hypertension is currently defined as when SYSTOLIC PRESSURE is consistently greater than 140 mm Hg or when DIASTOLIC PRESSURE is consistently 90 mm Hg or more. Blood Pressure, High,Blood Pressures, High,High Blood Pressure,High Blood Pressures
D007295 Inositol Phosphates Phosphoric acid esters of inositol. They include mono- and polyphosphoric acid esters, with the exception of inositol hexaphosphate which is PHYTIC ACID. Inositol Phosphate,Phosphate, Inositol,Phosphates, Inositol

D009638 Norepinephrine Precursor of epinephrine that is secreted by the ADRENAL MEDULLA and is a widespread central and autonomic neurotransmitter. Norepinephrine is the principal transmitter of most postganglionic sympathetic fibers, and of the diffuse projection system in the brain that arises from the LOCUS CERULEUS. It is also found in plants and is used pharmacologically as a sympathomimetic.
