We investigated the effects of losartan and captopril on noradrenaline (NA) release and
vascular reactivity to NA in the pithed rat. 2. The pressor responses to sympathetic nerve …

Abstract Three groups of New Zealand white rabbits were used to study the effects of
captopril on the renin-angiotensin system and sympathetic nervous system during sodium …

1 The aim of this study was to investigate whether nitric oxide (NO) and/or vasodilator
prostaglandins (PGs) are involved in the sympathoinhibitory effects exerted by losartan …

The effects of captopril, 3 and 10 mg/kg, on vascular noradrenergic transmission were
examined in vivo in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and normotensive Wistar-Kyoto …

1 The effects of the β2‐adrenoceptor agonist, procaterol, on sympathetic neuroeffector
transmission were studied in the pithed adrenal demedullated rat to determine if generation …

Intravenous administration to pithed Wistar rats of the angiotensin converting enzyme
inhibitor enalapril (0.1–1.0 mg/kg) lowered the diastolic blood pressure and reduced pressor …

1. Enhanced pressor responsiveness to angiotensin II and noradrenaline has been
demonstrated in the hypertension that follows deoxycorticosterone (DOC) and salt …

We have previously demonstrated the chronic hypotensive effects of the AT 1 antagonist
losartan in normotensive, salt-replete rats. We hypothesized that the chronic effects of …

The interaction between the renin-angiotensin system and nitric oxide (NO) is undeniable,
but its nature is not fully known. This study investigated the contribution of NO to the acute …

We have studied the attenuation by captopril of sympathetic neurotransmission in
spontaneously hypertensive rats. Captopril (4 mg/kg for 15–17 days or 20 mg/kg for 4 days) …
