Abstract:
:Experimental animal studies carried out over the past 40 years have unequivocally shown that neurogenic mechanisms are involved in the pathogenesis of hypertension. The results of these studies also suggest that neural factors are important not only in the development but also in the maintenance of the high blood pressure condition. Whether this is the case also for human hypertension has been matter of debate for several decades. However, recent studies in man by employing sophisticated techniques for assessing sympathetic tone, i.e. the norepinephrine radiolabelled technique and microneurographic recording of sympathetic nerve traffic, support the hypothesis that alterations in sympathetic modulation of the cardiovascular system take place in hypertension and may have a pathogenetic relevance in age-related blood pressure increase.
