NORADRENALINE SENSITIVITY AND CALCIUM FLUXES IN ARTERIES FROM RABBITS WITH PERINEPHRITIS HYPERTENSION
Abstract
1. Contractions of isolated vascular and cardiac preparations taken from rabbits with perinephritis (one kidney, one wrapped) hypertension were compared with those of preparations from control operated animals. 2. Significantly increased sensitivity to noradrenaline, which acts on alpha 1-adrenoceptors, was found in mesenteric arterial rings but not in aortic rings. The degree of hypersensitivity was the same in the presence and absence of …
