The major objective of this study was to determine whether there was a clear relationship between the postsynaptic sensitivity of smooth muscle to noradrenaline and the blood pressure of the animal and, in addition, determine how neuronal uptake<jats:sub>1<\/jats:sub> activity could modify postsynaptic sensitivity. The mean arterial blood pressure profile of the animals studied was for the 6- to 8-week animals: SHR &gt; F<jats:sub>1<\/jats:sub> &gt; WKY; for the 12- to 16-week group: SHR = BC<jats:sub>1<\/jats:sub>(S) &gt; F<jats:sub>1<\/jats:sub> &gt; BC<jats:sub>1<\/jats:sub>(W) &gt; WKY; and for the &gt; 52 week group: SHR &gt; BC<jats:sub>1<\/jats:sub>(S) = F<jats:sub>1<\/jats:sub> &gt; BC<jats:sub>1<\/jats:sub>(W) &gt; WKY [F<jats:sub>1<\/jats:sub> obtained from SHR \u00d7 WKY; BC<jats:sub>1<\/jats:sub>(S) = SHR \u00d7 F<jats:sub>1<\/jats:sub>; BC<jats:sub>1<\/jats:sub>(W) = WKY \u00d7 F<jats:sub>1<\/jats:sub>]. With the exception of the aorta from F<jats:sub>1<\/jats:sub> animals, the noradrenaline mean effective dose (ED<jats:sub>50<\/jats:sub>) recorded from thoracic aortae, tail artery, portal vein, and anococcygeus tissues were not significantly different. After a 20-min pretreatment of tissues from 12- to 16-week rats (but not from 6- to 8-week rats) with 4\u2002\u00d7\u200210<jats:sup>\u22125<\/jats:sup>\u2002M cocaine, there was a significantly greater leftward shift, as indicated by the noradrenaline ED<jats:sub>50<\/jats:sub> before: noradrenaline ED<jats:sub>50<\/jats:sub> after cocaine ratio, in the tail artery preparation from the SHR compared with the WKY; however, no significant differences in the ED<jats:sub>50<\/jats:sub> ratios were noted for the thoracic aorta, the portal vein, or the anococcygeus tissues. In addition, there was a good correlation, r\u2002=\u20020.59, between the mean arterial blood pressure of the SHR and related rats, and the ED<jats:sub>50<\/jats:sub> ratio in the tail artery preparation but less so in other tissues: portal vein, 0.09; anococcygeus, 0.33. The results from the older &gt;52-week group of rats again revealed similar noradrenaline ED<jats:sub>50<\/jats:sub> values for the thoracic aorta, tail artery, portal vein, and anococcygeus tissues prior to cocaine treatment, and after cocaine treatment there was, with the exception of aortic tissues, a good correlation between the mean arterial blood pressure of the rat and the noradrenaline ED<jats:sub>50<\/jats:sub> ratio in the tail artery, r\u2002=\u20020.60; with lower r values for portal vein (0.47) and anococcygeus (0.33). The present findings indicate that innervated arterial smooth muscle, as represented by the tail artery from &gt;52-week SHR, has an elevated postjunctional sensitivity to noradrenaline which is masked by an elevated uptake<jats:sub>1<\/jats:sub> activity; the ED<jats:sub>50<\/jats:sub> ratio for the tail artery preparation from the 12- to 16-week animals is also higher in the SHR than WKY, suggesting elevated uptake<jats:sub>1<\/jats:sub> activity; but the postjunctional sensitivity, after cocaine, is similar for SHR, F<jats:sub>1<\/jats:sub>, and WKY. No such differences, in either age group, are noted in the noninnervated thoracic aorta preparation. A comparison of the results from portal vein and anococcygeus indicates no significant differences in tissue sensitivity prior to cocaine treatment, but an elevated uptake<jats:sub>1<\/jats:sub> activity in both portal vein and anococcygeus and elevated postjunctional sensitivity in the anococcygeus from SHR of the &gt;52 weeks, but not the 12- to 16-weck group. Thus, elevated uptake<jats:sub>1<\/jats:sub> activity is present at an earlier age in arterial smooth muscle from SHR than in venous or nonvascular smooth muscle, indicating selective changes occur in uptake<jats:sub>1<\/jats:sub> in the arterial smooth muscle of the SHR prior to changes in nonarterial smooth muscle. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1139\/y84-015","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,4,24]],"date-time":"2011-04-24T08:52:44Z","timestamp":1303635164000},"page":"94-100","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["The relationship between the elevated blood pressure of the spontaneously hypertensive rat and the chemical sensitivity of smooth muscle to adrenergic agents"],"prefix":"10.1139","volume":"62","author":[{"given":"Ismail","family":"Laher","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Chris","family":"Triggle","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"155","container-title":["Canadian Journal of Physiology and Pharmacology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/www.nrcresearchpress.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1139\/y84-015","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2020,1,5]],"date-time":"2020-01-05T16:22:52Z","timestamp":1578241372000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"http:\/\/www.nrcresearchpress.com\/doi\/10.1139\/y84-015"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[1984,1,1]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"1","published-print":{"date-parts":[[1984,1,1]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1139\/y84-015"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1139\/y84-015","relation":{},"ISSN":["0008-4212","1205-7541"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0008-4212","type":"print"},{"value":"1205-7541","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[1984,1,1]]}}}
