Abstract

It is shown that the perfusion pressure in isolated rat caudal artery rises and constrictive responses to electrical stimulation decrease when the blood of normotensive Wistar-Kyoto rats perfusing the vessel was replaced by the blood of spontaneously hypertensive rats. The norepinephrine release from the sympathetic terminals is reduced.
