Evidence for increased glucocorticoid 6 beta-hydroxylation (enhanced family 3A cytochrome P-450 activity) is found in certain reversible forms of human hypertension. This association was investigated in the spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR). The proportion of injected [3H]corticosterone excreted in urine as 6 beta-[3H]OH-corticosterone was four- to fivefold higher in SHR than in control Wistar-Kyoto rats, before and after development of overt hypertension. Both hypertension and 6 beta-hydroxylation were inhibited by troleandomycin (a selective inhibitor of family 3A cytochromes P-450), consistent with a role for increased steroid 6 beta-hydroxylation in the genesis of hypertension in the SHR.
