Some mitochondrial biochemical parameters were determined in Wistar rats with experimentally induced arterial hypertension (AHT) treated with calcium blocking agents of the Verapamil series. The results obtained showed that succinic dehydrogenase (SDH) activity increased, in the group with AHT, by 23.4% as compared with the control group while in the group with AHT treated with Verapamil the activity of this enzyme increased by 46.7%. The NAD+ dehydrogenase activity showed a moderate increase (15.7%) in the group with AHT and an increase by 22.3% after administration of Verapamil. The mitochondrial content in thiolic groups presented an increase of 12.5% in the group with AHT and of 24.4% in the treated group. The kinetics of the mitochondrial swelling-contraction also presented changes in as much as the cycle period, first increased then partially returned to normal values after Verapamil treatment. The strongly stimulating effect of Verapamil on the enzymatic activity in the Krebs cycle was also demonstrated.
