Electrical stimulation of the dorsal raphe nucleus or direct microinjection of serotonin into the preoptic region of the anterior hypothalamus produces a transient rise in arterial blood pressure in both spontaneously hypertensive rats (SRH) and Wistar--Kyoto (WKY) controls. SRHs are more responsive to raphe stimulation but are somewhat less responsive to serotonin injections when compared to WKYs. The serotonin antagonist metergoline blocks the pressor response to serotonin in both strains. These results suggest that the central serotonergic neuronal system play a similar, but not identical, role in blood pressure modulation in hypertensive and normotensive rats.
