Blood pressure elevation in young dogs during low-level lead poisoning.

Abstract:

:Clinical and experimental studies suggest an association between low-level lead exposure and hypertension. This association was investigated in six 3-month-old dogs who were randomly paired with their littermates. The daily oral dose of lead acetate was 1.0 mg Pb/kg body wt for 5 months; the controls received equimolar sodium acetate. Blood pressure was measured indirectly without anesthesia and was similar in the two groups at the start of the study. The mean blood pressure was higher in the lead-exposed group at every follow-up, from 10 days to 20 weeks. This treatment group difference in profiles was statistically significant (repeated-measures ANOVA, p = 0.0048). The final mean blood pressures were 120 +/- 6.4 (x +/- SE) vs 108 +/- 1.5 mm Hg. At 4 weeks the plasma renin activity was higher in the lead-exposed group: 3.4 +/- 0.25 vs 1.2 +/- 0.15 ng/ml/hr. The difference decreased during the study but the elevated trend persisted (repeated-measures ANOVA, p = 0.014). Lead exposure did not alter renal functions or extracellular fluid volume. This study shows that low-level lead intake in young dogs can cause an early increase in blood pressure which persists during ongoing exposure and which is associated with a small increase in the activity of the renin-angiotensin system.
