Lead-Induced Hypertension is Related to Accumulation of Reactivs Oxygen Species. H.C.Gonick*, Y.Ding, Z.Ni, r. Oveisi, N.D. Vaziri*. Depts. of Medicine, univeraity of california, Irvine, CA, and CedarS-Sinai Medical Center, Los Angeles,CA. Administration of 100 ppm lead acetate daily for 3 mo. to Sprague-Dawley rats caused an elevation of intra-arterial mean blood preasure (MBP) while treatment with 2, 3-dimercaptoBuccinic acid (DMSA), a thiol-containing chelator of lead and scavenger Of free radicals (0.5' daily for 2 weeks), reduced MBP toward normal (10S±2.4(SEM) DIIlI Hg, Controls, (C), VB 149±1.9, Lead-treated (L), p<0.001, va 124±1.4, Lead + DMSA-tr.ated (D), p<0.0011 C vs D, p-O.OOS). Animal. from each group (n-71 were anesthetized with Inactin., then infuBed sequentially in 30 minute intervals with saline, L-arginine (Arg), L-arginine + superoxide dismutase (SOD), saline, nitroprusside (SNP). Infusion of Arg (bolus of 300 mg followed by 10 mg/kg/min) caused a fall in MBP in all animals, which was significantly greater in L than in other groups (AHBP-Sl.8±S.8D11l1 Hg, L, vs 30.0±3.6, C, p<0.01). The addition of SOD (37,000 U. bolus followed by 1200 U/min) to the Arg infUsion failed to alter MBP. Infusion of SNP (15~g/kg/min) caused a similar fall in M8P in all groups (7l±4.8, C, vs 8S±6.0, L. vs 67±4.2, D. p-NS). MeaBurements of plasma and urinary nitric oxide (NO) by chemiluminescence analyzer and CGMP by RIA were similar in C and L groups. ABBay of malondialdshyde-thiobarbituric acid adduct (MeATBA) by HPLC, as a measurs of lipid peroxidation (and hence of reactive oxygen species), was elevated in L. reduced in D (1.87±0.20~M, C, vs J.59!.O.43, L, p

Japan 'The renal Disease & DialYSIS Csnter, SMsma Medlcsl School, Saltama, Japan We have demonstrated that ovariectomy enhanced the gsnetlcal salt-senSitivity by blunllng pressurs natriureSIS relabonshlp. which precsded the development of overt hypertensIon in female DahHwai salt sensltlvs(DS) rats. In thiS study. the effsct of ovariectomy snd estrogen replacement on blood pressure and platelel aggregation were ,nvesl'gated n OS rats.

Decreased prodllct/oo of nitric: oxide (NO) bas been sUUested as contributinl to the hypertellliion of pre-eclampsia. We Investigated thk possibility In prepsnt nils. Pregnant rats were treated from gestational day 13 to 20 with the NOS inhibitors aminoguanidine (AG, 0.1 mg/m1), LNAME (I mglml) or with 7-nltrolndazoie (7Nl, 25 mg/kg) sdded to the drinking water. Two additional group of rats was given daily dclses of LNIO (10 mg/kg, Ip) or LNlL (10 JDg/kg, Ip). Cootrol anImais received regular drinking water. Food and water intake and urinary euretioo of sodium, creatinine, uric: add, protein and nitrate and nitrite (RNI) wert measured daily. Maternal blood and

urine cbemistrles, blood pressure and cardiac fUllction and tissue arginine were measured at term. LNAME, but not LNIO, LNlL, AG or 7N1 raised arterial pregure despite the ability of each inhibitor to inhibit plasma and urine RNl. Of the five inhibitors only AG produced diuresis and natriuresis. Each of the inhibitors escept 7N1 decreased creatinine cIearan« and the fractional euretioo of 1Ddiwn. LNlO and LNlL produced hyperuricemia secondary Co Impairment of uric acid ncretioo. The data suggest that chrooic inhibition of nitric oxide synthesis is insufficient Co cause sustained hyperteosioo iD pregnant rats. Moreover, the different effects of these inhibitors on retW and cardioYascuIar functioo suggest that these C:OlIlpouods have phannac:oIogIc: lIl:tivitles In additioo Co that of NOS inhlbitloo.
