Role of EDRF in the regulation of regional blood flow and vascular resistance at rest and during exercise in conscious dogs

The contribution of endothelium-derived relaxing factor (EDRF) to the regulation of regional vascular resistance and tissue blood flow at rest and during acute moderate exercise was studied in chronically instrumented conscious dogs. Radioactive microspheres were injected before and during exercise to measure regional blood flow. An infusion of nitro-L-arginine (L-NA), an analogue of L-arginine, was used to inhibit the synthesis of EDRF and resulted in a significant increase in mean arterial pressure, associated with significantly elevated vascular resistance in heart, skeletal muscle, renal and splanchnic circulations and with decreases in tissue blood flow in those regions at rest. Acute exercise caused a typical redistribution of blood flow, in which there was vasodilation in heart and working skeletal muscles, accompanied by vasoconstriction in kidney and splanchnic circulations. L-NA resulted in significantly elevated vascular resistance during vasodilation in heart and working skeletal muscles and also significantly increased vasoconstriction in renal cortex, stomach, pancreas, liver, and colon during exercise. Blood flows during exercise were largely unaffected by L-NA treatment. Our results suggest that whereas EDRF functions to regulate basal vascular tone and vascular resistance during exercise, EDRF has a minor role in determining the pattern of the redistribution of tissue blood flow during exercise.
