In the present study, we describe the effects of Ca2+ channel antagonist (verapamil) on [3H]acetylcholine (ACh) release in the central nervous system of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). The electrically stimulated release of [3H]ACh from striatal slices was not different between SHR and normotensive Wistar Kyoto (WKY) rats. Verapamil inhibited electrically stimulated [3H]ACh release in a dose-related fashion. The inhibitory effect of verapamil was significantly greater in SHR than in WKY rats. These results suggest that the Ca2+ sensitivity of central cholinergic neurons might be enhanced in SHR, which could attribute, at least partially, to the pathogenesis of hypertension.
