Abstract:
Using computerized analysis of hemodynamics in conscious unrestrained rats, we tested the effects of intracerebroventricular administration of ketanserin (50 ?g), a special 5-HT2 antagonist, on blood pressure (BP), blood pressure variability (BPV), baroreflex-blood pressure control (ABR-BP), and baroreflex-heart period control (ABR-HP). The result are as follows: (1) There was no significant depression of blood pressure after intracerebroventricular administration of ketanserin; (2) Ketanserin could significantly decreased BPV, and enhanced ABR-BP and ABR-HP; (3) The decreasing of BPV was associated with enhancement of ABR-BP, but these changes were no related to the level of BP, indicating that the hypotension induced by ketanserin was not related to the enhancement of ABR-BP; (4) There was no significant negative relationship between ABR-BP and BPV after intracerebroventricular administration of ketanserin.
