Reduced cardiovascular reactivity to stress but not feeding in renin enhancer knockout mice.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:We have recently shown that the renin enhancer, a regulatory element of renin gene transcription, is important in the long-term control of basal blood pressure (BP). In this study, we examined whether the renin enhancer deficit alters the acute pressor response to emotional stress in mice. METHODS:Under fluothane anesthesia, wild-type (C57BL6, n=7) and the Ren-1c enhancer knockout (REKO, n=8) mice were implanted with telemetry devices to measure BP and locomotor activity. RESULTS:Resting BP in REKO mice (94+/-3 mm Hg) was lower than in wild-type mice (102+/-2 mm Hg). Shaker stress elicited prompt pressor (+25+/-2 mm Hg), tachycardic (+145+/-25 beats/min), and locomotor responses in wild-type mice. The BP and locomotor responses were decreased in REKO mice by 39%+/-12% (P=.03) and 64%+/-11% (P=.02), respectively, whereas the tachycardic response remained unchanged. Restraint stress increased BP by 27+/-1 mm Hg in wild-type mice. The BP response was attenuated in REKO mice by 21%+/-8% (P=.05), and this attenuation could not be ascribed to reduced locomotor activity during stress. Cardiovascular arousal associated with presentation and eating palatable food was similar in wild-type (+19+/-2 mm Hg and +174+/-21 beats/min) and REKO (+19+/-2 mm Hg and +147+/-17 beats/min) mice. The contractile response to the alpha-adrenoceptor agonist phenylephrine was reduced in aortas from REKO mice, whereas that to angiotensin II was not different between strains. CONCLUSIONS:The disrupted regulation of renin synthesis caused by the renin enhancer deficit in mice is associated with a selective reduction in BP reactivity to aversive stress, which may be mediated by multiple central and peripheral mechanisms.
