The effects of adenosine on stimulation-evoked 3H-efflux from perfused mesenteric arteries pretreated with 3H-norepinephrine and on norepinephrine-induced contractile responses of the thoracic aorta before and after mechanical removal of endothelial cells were examined in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) compared with Wistar-Kyoto rats (WKY). Adenosine inhibited the stimulation-evoked 3H-efflux; this inhibitory effect was smaller in young and adult SHR than age-matched WKY. Mechanical removal of endothelial cells rendered the SHR aorta much less responsive to adenosine, while in the WKY aorta endothelial removal had no influence on the relaxation response to adenosine. These results support the hypothesis that pre-synaptic factors are contributory whereas endothelial factors are compensatory to hypertension in SHR.
