Abstract：
:Many studies have demonstrated that chronic intermittent hypobaric hypoxia (CIHH) can reduce blood pressure in spontaneously hypertensive rats and renovascular hypertensive (RVH) rats in which endothelial dysfunction is determined as a critical factor. However, whether CIHH can regulate vasodilation of the aorta in RVH rats remains unknown. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of CIHH on impaired relaxation of the aorta in the 2-kidney, 1-clip (2K1C) RVH rat model. The results showed CIHH improved the impaired endothelium-dependent relaxation in the 2K1C rat aorta. The endothelial dysfunction was prevented by the p38 antagonist SB203580, but not by the ERK1/2 antagonist PD98059 or JNK antagonist SP600125. Furthermore, the expression of p-eNOS, HIF-1α, and HIF-2α increased while that of p-p38 and BMP-4 decreased in CIHH-treated aortas from 2K1C rats. Finally, the p-eNOS expression was upregulated and the p-p38 expression was downregulated by pre-incubation of SB203580 or the BMP-4 antagonist Noggin with the aorta. CIHH ameliorated the impairment of endothelium-dependent relaxation through upregulating the expression of p-eNOS, which may be mediated by the inhibition of BMP-4/p-p38 MAPK, and upregulating the expression of HIFs in the 2K1C rat aorta.
