The prenatal and/or postweaning effects of a hypertensinogenic high NaCl-containing diet (8.0% NaCl, w/w) on (1) the regional distribution of alpha 1-adrenoceptors and muscarinic cholinergic receptor sites in the heart and (2) the predisposition/resistance to hypertension (HT) were assessed in the inbred Dahl HT-sensitive (S/JR) and HT-resistant (R/JR) rat. The density of alpha 1-adrenoceptors was reduced in the left ventricle but not consistently affected in the ventricular septum, right ventricle, or atria of S/JR offspring with NaCl-induced HT. Both normotensive and hypertensive S/JR rats also displayed a significantly greater density of cholinergic receptor sites in the atria but few consistent alterations in other regions of the heart, compared to R/JR rats. Maternal diet had no effect on the predisposition/resistance to salt-induced HT and little effect on the regional development of alpha 1-adrenoceptors and cholinergic receptor sites. The results of this study suggest that the reduced density of ventricular alpha 1-adrenoceptors in the S/JR strain is a consequence of HT while the elevated density of cholinergic receptors in the atria may be related to the genetic predisposition/resistance to HT.
