Abstract:
:We assessed the contribution of angiotensin-(1-7) [Ang-(1-7)] to captopril-induced cardiovascular protection in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs) chronically treated with the nitric oxide synthesis inhibitor NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (SHR-l). NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (80 mg/L) administration for 3 weeks increased mean arterial pressure (MAP) from 196 ± 6 to 229 ± 3 mm Hg (P < 0.05). Treatment of SHR-l with Ang-(1-7) antagonist [d-Ala7]-Ang-(1-7) (A779; 744 μg·kg(-1)·d(-1) ip) further elevated MAP to 253 ± 6 mm Hg (P < 0.05 vs SHR-l or SHR). Moreover, A779 treatment attenuated the reduction in MAP and proteinuria by either captopril (300 mg/L in drinking water) or hydralazine (1.5 mg·kg(-1)·d(-1) ip). In isolated perfused hearts, the recovery of left ventricular function from global ischemia was enhanced by captopril or hydralazine treatment and was exacerbated with A779. The Ang-(1-7) antagonist attenuated the beneficial effects of captopril and hydralazine on cardiac function. Recovery from global ischemia was also improved in isolated SHR-l hearts acutely perfused with captopril during both the perfusion and reperfusion periods. The acute administration of A779 reduced the beneficial actions of captopril to improve recovery after ischemia. We conclude that during periods of reduced nitric oxide availability, endogenous Ang-(1-7) plays a protective role in effectively buffering the increase in blood pressure and renal injury and the recovery from cardiac ischemia. Moreover, Ang-(1-7) contributes to the blood pressure lowering and tissue protective actions of captopril and hydralazine in a model of severe hypertension and end-organ damage.
