Abstract
BACKGROUND The optimal level of sodium intake remains controversial. OBJECTIVES This study sought to determine whether examination of left ventricular longitudinal strain (LS), circumferential strain, and e' velocity can provide insight into thresholds for the detrimental effects of estimated sodium intake (ESI) on subclinical cardiovascular disease. METHODS We performed speckle-tracking analysis on HyperGEN (Hypertension Genetic Epidemiology Network) study echocardiograms with available urinary sodium data (N = 2,996). We evaluated the associations among ESI and LS, circumferential strain, and e' velocity using multivariable-adjusted linear mixed-effects models (to account for relatedness among subjects) with linear splines (spline 1: ESI ≤3.7 g/day, spline 2: ESI >3.7 g/day based on visual inspection of fractional polynomial plots of the association between ESI and indices of strain and e' velocity). We performed mediation analysis to understand the indirect effects of systolic blood pressure and serum aldosterone on the relationship between ESI and strain and e' velocity. RESULTS Mean age of participants was 49 ± 14 years, 57% were female, 50% were African American, and 54% had hypertension. The median ESI was 3.73 (interquartile range: 3.24, 4.25) g/day. ESI >3.7 g/day was associated with larger left atrial and left ventricular dimensions (p < 0.05). After adjusting for speckle-tracking analyst, image quality, study site, age, sex, smoking status, alcohol use, daily blocks walked, diuretic use, estimated glomerular filtration rate, left ventricular mass, ejection fraction, and wall motion score index, ESI >3.7 g/day was associated with both strain parameters and e' velocity (p < 0.05 for all comparisons), but ESI ≤3.7 g/day was not (p > 0.05 for all comparisons). There were significant interactions by potassium excretion for circumferential strain. Mediation analysis suggested that systolic blood pressure explained 14% and 20% of the indirect effects between ESI and LS and e' velocity, respectively, whereas serum aldosterone explained 19% of the indirect effects between ESI and LS. CONCLUSIONS ESI >3.7 g/day is associated with adverse cardiac remodeling and worse systolic strain and diastolic e' velocity.

Abstract
Proper function of the vascular endothelium is essential for cardiovascular health, in large part due to its antiproliferative, antihypertrophic, and anti-inflammatory properties. Crucial to the protective role of the endothelium is the production and liberation of nitric oxide (NO), which not only acts as a potent vasodilator, but also reduces levels of reactive oxygen species, including superoxide anion (O2•-). Superoxide anion is highly injurious to the vasculature because it not only scavenges NO molecules, but has other damaging effects, including direct oxidative disruption of normal signaling mechanisms in the endothelium and vascular smooth muscle cells. The renin-angiotensin system plays a crucial role in the maintenance of normal blood pressure. This function is mediated via the peptide hormone angiotensin II (ANG II), which maintains normal blood volume by regulating Na+ excretion. However, elevation of ANG II above normal levels increases O2•- production, promotes oxidative stress and endothelial dysfunction, and plays a major role in multiple disease conditions. Elevated dietary salt intake also leads to oxidant stress and endothelial dysfunction, but these occur in the face of salt-induced ANG II suppression and reduced levels of circulating ANG II. While the effects of abnormally high levels of ANG II have been extensively studied, far less is known regarding the mechanisms of oxidant stress and endothelial dysfunction occurring in response to chronic exposure to abnormally low levels of ANG II. The current article focuses on the mechanisms and consequences of this less well understood relationship among salt, superoxide, and endothelial function.

Abstract
Within the last 25 years, it has become increasingly clear that high dietary salt intake represents a risk factor for the development of cardiovascular disease that is independent of its well-known ability to increase arterial pressure in some individuals. Studies in normotensive experimental animals and human subjects have revealed that a key feature of this pressure-independent effect of dietary salt is a profound reduction in vascular nitric oxide (NO) bioavailability that limits endothelium-dependent dilation. This reduction in NO is strongly associated with increased levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated by NAD(P)H oxidase, xanthine oxidase or uncoupled endothelial NO synthase within the vascular wall, leading not only to scavenging of NO but also to disruption of some signaling pathways that mediate its production. The mechanistic link between high salt intake and elevated levels of enzymatically generated ROS in the peripheral vasculature is not clear, but a reduction in circulating angiotensin II may play a key role in this regard. Additional studies are needed to further elucidate the mechanisms, both at the systemic level and within the vascular wall, that trigger these salt-induced deficits in endothelial function, and to further clarify how the attendant loss of NO may disrupt tissue blood flow regulation and ultimately lead to adverse cardiovascular events.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Excess dietary sodium has been linked to the development of hypertension and other cardiovascular diseases. In humans, the effects of sodium consumption on endothelial function have not been separated from the effects on blood pressure. The present study was designed to determine if dietary sodium intake affected endothelium-dependent dilation (EDD) independently of changes in blood pressure. METHOD Fourteen healthy salt-resistant adults were studied (9M, 5F; age 33 ± 2.4 years) in a controlled feeding study. After a baseline run-in diet, participants were randomized to a 7-day high-sodium (300-350 mmol/day) and 7-day low-sodium (20 mmol/day) diet. Salt resistance, defined as a 5 mmHg or less change in a 24-h mean arterial pressure, was individually assessed while on the low-sodium and high-sodium diets and confirmed in the participants undergoing study (low-sodium: 85 ± 1 mmHg; high-sodium: 85 ± 2 mmHg). EDD was determined in each participant via brachial artery flow-mediated dilation on the last day of each diet. RESULTS Sodium excretion increased during the high-sodium diet (P < 0.01). EDD was reduced on the high-sodium diet (low: 10.3 ± 0.9%, high: 7.3 ± 0.7%; P < 0.05). The high-sodium diet significantly suppressed plasma renin activity (PRA), plasma angiotensin II, and aldosterone (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION These data demonstrate that excess salt intake in humans impairs endothelium-dependent dilation independently of changes in blood pressure.

Abstract
Animal studies have reported dietary salt-induced reductions in vascular function independent of increases in blood pressure (BP). The purpose of this study was to determine if short-term dietary sodium loading impairs cutaneous microvascular function in normotensive adults with salt resistance. Following a control run-in diet, 12 normotensive adults (31 ± 2 years) were randomized to a 7 day low-sodium (LS; 20 mmol day(-1)) and 7 day high-sodium (HS; 350 mmol day(-1)) diet (controlled feeding study). Salt resistance, defined as a 5 mmHg change in 24 h mean BP determined while on the LS and HS diets, was confirmed in all subjects undergoing study (LS: 84 ± 1 mmHg vs. HS: 85 ± 2 mmHg; P > 0.05). On the last day of each diet, subjects were instrumented with two microdialysis fibres for the local delivery of Ringer solution and 20 mm ascorbic acid (AA). Laser Doppler flowmetry was used to measure red blood cell flux during local heating-induced vasodilatation (42°C). After the established plateau, 10 mm l-NAME was perfused to quantify NO-dependent vasodilatation. All data were expressed as a percentage of maximal cutaneous vascular conductance (CVC) at each site (28 mm sodium nitroprusside; 43°C). Sodium excretion increased during the HS diet (P < 0.05). The plateau % CVCmax was reduced during HS (LS: 93 ± 1 % CVCmax vs. HS: 80 ± 2 % CVCmax; P < 0.05). During the HS diet, AA improved the plateau % CVCmax (Ringer: 80 ± 2 % CVCmax vs. AA: 89 ± 3 % CVCmax; P < 0.05) and restored the NO contribution (Ringer: 44 ± 3 % CVCmax vs. AA: 59 ± 6 % CVCmax; P < 0.05). These data demonstrate that dietary sodium loading impairs cutaneous microvascular function independent of BP in normotensive adults and suggest a role for oxidative stress.

Abstract
The increasing trends of blood pressure (BP) in children and adolescents pose great concern for the burden of hypertension-related cardiovascular disease. Although primary hypertension in childhood is commonly associated with obesity, it seems that other factors, such as dietary sodium and exercise, also influence BP levels in children and adolescents. Several studies support that sympathetic nervous system imbalance, impairment of the physiological mechanism of pressure natriuresis, hyperinsulinemia and early vascular changes are involved in the mechanisms causing elevated BP in obese children and adolescents. Under the current evidence on the association of salt intake and BP, dietary sodium restriction appears to be a rational step in the prevention of hypertension in genetically predisposed children and adolescents. Finally, interventional studies show that regular aerobic exercise can significantly reduce BP and restore vascular changes in obese with hypertensive pediatric patients. This article aims to summarize previous studies on the role of obesity, salt intake and exercise on BP in children and adolescents.

Abstract
Childhood HTN (hypertension) has become a widely investigated topic within the last decade due to its increasing prevalence. In the present review, we examine new developments and trends that have significantly contributed to aetiology, diagnosis, evaluation and management of childhood HTN. Many recent reports document an increasing prevalence of HTN, mainly essential HTN, in children worldwide. This is probably related to the increase of childhood obesity, although obesity is not the only factor. Evidence has been accumulating to suggest a rather complex interplay between obesity, uric acid level, dietary sodium intake, inflammation, inheritance and other factors, which lead to increased risk of developing HTN in childhood and adulthood. The detection and monitoring of HTN has significantly improved with the use of ABPM (ambulatory blood pressure monitoring), which allows not only for a more accurate classification and staging of HTN, but also for the calculation of more sophisticated parameters such as the AASI (ambulatory arterial stiffness index). Measurement of arterial stiffness enables assessment of arterial dysfunction, which may precede structural vascular changes evaluated by carotid intima media thickness. Sustained HTN eventually leads to end-organ damage [LVH (left ventricular hypertrophy), central nervous system], which in turn increases the risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. New developments in childhood HTN, as outlined in the present review, will hopefully contribute to better screening and management of HTN in children.

Abstract
We sought to explore the effects of salt loading in young normotensives on vascular endothelial function, echocardiographic left ventricular diastolic function, and electrocardiographic QT dispersion. Sixteen healthy normotensive male volunteers were randomized in a double-blind crossover fashion to 5-day treatment periods with either placebo or salt tablets (200 mmol/d of sodium) separated by a 2-week washout period. Throughout the study the volunteers were asked to maintain a low-salt diet. Forearm venous occlusion plethysmography and intraarterial infusions of acetylcholine (ACh), sodium nitroprusside (SNP), and

-arginine (L-NMMA) were used to assess vascular reactivity. Baseline and postsalt loading 12-lead ECGs and echocardiograms were also obtained. Twenty-four-hour ambulatory systolic blood pressure rose (117±11 to 121±8 mm Hg) significantly with salt loading. The endothelium-dependent responses to ACh were significantly blunted with salt compared to placebo (ΔFBF% 403 [50] versus 296 [31];

P
<0.01). In contrast, the endothelium-independent response to SNP was not different between treatments. Color M-mode flow propagation velocity (CMMFPV), a preload index of left ventricular diastolic function, was significantly reduced with salt (64 [6] versus 59 [16] cm/s;
P
<0.05) suggesting increased ventricular stiffness. QT dispersion was also significantly increased with salt (58 [16] versus 48 [17] ms;
P
=0.02). Salt loading impaired vascular endothelial function, left ventricular mechanical relaxation, and electric repolarization in young healthy normotensives.

Abstract
Few controversies in medicine have such a long history as that of whether salt is identifiably dangerous or not dangerous. The most common reported association between excess dietary salt intake and clinical outcome has been in the field of hypertension, but dietary sodium intake mediates effects that go far beyond, and are independent of, extracellular fluid expansion and elevation in blood pressure. For nephrologists, clinical trials that demonstrate no negative outcome of a high salt diet in the general population are thus not particularly assuasive, because patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) represent an entity that is by no means comparable to the general population. This review takes a look at the challenges associated with salt balance in CKD patients (particularly at K/DOQI stage 5), followed by a summary of current concepts believed to play a part in salt-mediated pathophysiology, and the conclusion, based on the present state of scientific knowledge, that it appears advisable to advocate low dietary salt intake in this patient population.

Abstract
Male Sprague-Dawley rats were maintained on a low-salt (LS) diet (0.4% NaCl) or changed to a high-salt (HS) diet (4% NaCl) for 3 days. Increases in intracellular Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) in response to methacholine (10 μM) and histamine (10 μM) were significantly attenuated in aortic endothelial cells from rats fed a HS diet, whereas thapsigargin (10 μM)-induced increases in [Ca2+]i were unaffected. Methacholine-induced nitric oxide (NO) production was eliminated in endothelial cells of aortas from rats fed a HS diet. Low-dose ANG II infusion (5 ng·kg−1·min−1 iv) for 3 days prevented impaired [Ca2+]i signaling response to methacholine and histamine and restored methacholine-induced NO production in aortas from rats on a HS diet. Adding Tempol (500 μM) to the tissue bath to scavenge superoxide anions increased NO release and caused Nω-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester-sensitive vascular relaxation in aortas from rats fed a HS diet but had no effect on methacholine-induced Ca2+ responses. Chronic treatment with Tempol (1 mM) in the drinking water restored NO release, augmented vessel relaxation, and increased methacholine-induced Ca2+ responses significantly in aortas from rats on a HS diet but not in aortas from rats on a LS diet. These findings suggest that 1) agonist-induced Ca2+ responses and NO levels are reduced in aortas of rats on a HS diet; 2) increased vascular superoxide levels contribute to NO destruction, and, eventually, to impaired Ca2+ signaling in the vascular endothelial cells; and 3) reduced circulating ANG II levels during elevated dietary salt lead to elevated superoxide levels, impaired endothelial Ca2+ signaling, and reduced NO production in the endothelium.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dietary salt has been debated for decades as having a potentially deleterious influence on human health. OBJECTIVES To determine the quality of research and the relationship between dietary salt and markers for progression of kidney disease. METHODS Data sources included 7 electronic databases comprehensively searched for literature published between January 1, 1966, and August 31, 2004, and a manual search of bibliographies of relevant papers, and consultation with experts in the field. Differences between the paired reviewers were reconciled through consensus or by a content expert. RESULTS Sixteen studies met the inclusion-exclusion criteria and were identified for review; however, the study methodologies were extremely heterogeneous. Conclusions commonly cited in the studies include: variations in salt consumption are directly correlated with albuminuria, and an increase in salt consumption is associated with an acute increase in glomerular filtration rate, while a reduction in salt consumption may slow the rate of renal function loss. CONCLUSIONS The available published information, while highly variable in methods and quality, suggests that variations in dietary salt consumption directly influence albuminuria, with increasing salt intake associated with worsening albuminuria; however, results are inadequate and conflicting on the effects of dietary salt consumption on renal function, especially over a prolonged time. There was no evidence of a detrimental effect of reduced salt intake. On the other hand, there is consistent experimental evidence to link increased salt exposure with kidney tissue injury. On the basis of these data, we believe that dietary salt restriction should be considered in patients with chronic kidney disease.

Abstract
Due to the inconsistent observations and suboptimal quality of the study designs, there is insufficient clinical evidence to suggest that increased salt intake may adversely modify the rate of progression of kidney disease. However, there is experimental evidence to suggest a link between increased salt exposure and kidney tissue injury. Further clinical trials are needed to evaluate the relationship between dietary salt and risk for progression of chronic kidney disease.

Abstract
Recent studies have demonstrated that cerebral arteries from rats fed a high-salt (HS) diet exhibit impaired vasodilation and altered electrophysiological response to reduction in Po2. The present study examined whether an increase in salt intake alters the response of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) to prostacyclin, a crucial mediator of hypoxic dilation in cerebral arteries. VSMC were isolated from cerebral arteries of male Sprague-Dawley rats maintained on an HS (4% NaCl) or a low-salt diet (0.4% NaCl) for 3 days. The stable prostacyclin analog iloprost (10 ng/ml) inhibited serotonin (0.1–10 μM)-induced contractions and the increase in intracellular Ca2+concentration ([Ca2+]i) in VSMC isolated from arteries of animals fed the low-salt diet. In contrast, iloprost had no effect on serotonin-induced contractions and increases in [Ca2+]iin VSMC isolated from arteries of rats fed the HS diet. Preventing the fall in ANG in rats fed the HS diet by infusion of a low dose of ANG II (5 ng·kg−1·min−1iv) restored the inhibitory effect of iloprost on serotonin-induced contractions and increases in [Ca2+]iin VSMC from animals fed the HS diet. These effects were reversed by AT1receptor blockade with losartan. These results indicate that ANG II suppression secondary to elevated dietary salt intake impairs vascular relaxation and Ca2+regulation by prostacyclin.

Abstract
The relationship between sodium chloride (salt) intake and blood pressure and cardiovascular disease has been debated for decades. Overlooked is whether there is a relationship between dietary electrolyte ingestion (both sodium and potassium) and risk for progression of kidney disease, particularly in patients who manifest early evidence of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Patients with CKD often are salt sensitive and respond to increased ingestion of sodium chloride with increased blood pressure. Of concern is the clinical evidence that salt-sensitive patients respond to increased salt intake, in the physiological range, with increased glomerular filtration fraction and proteinuria. Thus, these salt-induced changes in both systemic blood pressure and the renal microcirculation create a favorable theoretical scenario for progressive renal injury. Increased salt intake also attenuates the antihypertensive effects of most antihypertensive drugs. Consequently, salt intake must be considered a potential modifiable risk factor for the progression of kidney disease.

This study investigated the role of changes in the expression of the cytochrome P-450 4A (CYP450-4A) enzymes that produce 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE) in modulating the responses of rat mesenteric resistance arteries to norepinephrine (NE) and reduced Po(2) after short-term (3-day) changes in dietary salt intake. The CYP450-4A2, -4A3, and -4A8 isoforms were all detected by RT-PCR in arteries obtained from rats fed a high-salt (HS, 4% NaCl) diet, whereas only the CYP450-4A3 isoform was detected in vessels from rats fed a low-salt (LS, 0.4% NaCl) diet. Expression of the 51-kDa CYP450-4A protein was significantly increased by a HS diet. Inhibiting 20-HETE synthesis with 30 muM N-methylsulfonyl-12,12-dibromododec-11-enamide (DDMS) reduced the vasoconstrictor response to NE in arteries obtained from rats fed either a LS or HS diet, but NE sensitivity after DDMS treatment was significantly lower in vessels from rats on a HS diet. DDMS treatment also restored the vasodilator response to reduced Po(2) that was impaired in arteries from rats on a HS diet. These findings suggest that 1) a HS diet increases the expression of CYP450-4A enzymes in the mesenteric vasculature, 2) 20-HETE contributes to the vasoconstrictor response to NE in mesenteric resistance arteries, 3) the contribution of 20-HETE to the vasoconstrictor response to NE is greater in rats fed a HS diet than in rats fed a LS diet, and 4) upregulation of the production of 20-HETE contributes to the impaired dilation of mesenteric resistance arteries in response to hypoxia in rats fed a HS diet.

Abstract
Male Sprague-Dawley rats were maintained on a low-salt (LS) diet (0.4% NaCl) or a high-salt (HS) diet (4% NaCl) for 3 days or 4 wk. PO(2) reduction to 40-45 mmHg, the stable prostacyclin analog iloprost (10 pg/ml), and stimulatory G protein activation with cholera toxin (1 ng/ml) caused vascular smooth muscle (VSM) hyperpolarization, increased cAMP production, and dilation in cerebral arteries from rats on a LS diet. Arteries from rats on a HS diet exhibited VSM depolarization and constriction in response to hypoxia and iloprost, failed to dilate or hyperpolarize in response to cholera toxin, and cAMP production did not increase in response to hypoxia, iloprost, or cholera toxin. Low-dose angiotensin II infusion (5 ng x kg(-1) x min(-1) i.v.) restored normal responses to reduced PO(2) and iloprost in arteries from animals on a HS diet. These observations suggest that angiotensin II suppression with a HS diet leads to impaired relaxation of cerebral arteries in response to vasodilator stimuli acting at the cell membrane.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Endothelial dysfunction has been previously described in severely hypertensive rats with renal mass reduction (RMR) receiving large dietary Na loads. Because hypertension and Na loading reduce endothelium-dependent vasodilation, the effect of renal failure per se is unclear. METHODS Responses to acetylcholine in noradrenaline-contracted isolated perfused mesenteric arteries were studied. Vessels were obtained from RMR rats kept on a normal diet, 3 and 10 days after surgery, and the results were compared with those from sham-operated rats (SN). The role of three putative mediators of endothelium-dependent vasodilation was assessed using: L-NAME (10(-4) mol L(-1)); indomethacin (INDO, 10(-5) mol L(-1)); and a mixture of charybdotoxin and apamin (C/A, both 10(-7) mol L(-1)), inhibitors of Ca-activated K-channels to mediate the effects of endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor (EDHF). RESULTS Response to acetylcholine but not that to nitroprusside (endothelium-independent) was decreased in RMR. L-NAME reduced further acetylcholine relaxations in SN but not in RMR. By contrary, INDO decreased acetylcholine vasodilation in RMR but had no effect in SN. C/A had similar effects in the SN and RMR rats. The levels of 6-keto prostaglandin F1alpha were elevated in the urine of the RMR rats and were perfusate from the RMR vessels. CONCLUSION Endothelial dysfunction occurs early after RMR, even when systolic blood pressure is only minimally elevated and Na intake is normal. This alteration may be because of decreased availability of nitric oxide, partially compensated by increased prostacyclin production.

Abstract
Rats were fed a low-salt (LS; 0.4% NaCl) or high-salt (HS; 4.0% NaCl) diet for 3 days, and the responses of isolated cerebral arteries to acetylcholine (ACh), the nitric oxide (NO)-dependent dilator bradykinin, and the NO donor 6-(2-hydroxy-1-methyl-2-nitrosohydrazino)-N-methyl-1-hex-anamine (NOC-9) were determined. ACh-induced vasodilation and NO release, assessed with the fluorescent NO indicator 4,5-diaminofluorescein (DAF-2) diacetate, were eliminated with the HS diet. Inhibition of cyclooxygenase, cytochrome P-450 epoxygenase, and acetylcholinesterase did not alter ACh responses. Bradykinin and NOC-9 caused a similar dilation in cerebral arteries of all groups. Arteries from animals on LS or HS diets exhibited similar levels of basal superoxide (O(2)(-)) production, assessed by dihydroethidine fluorescence, and ACh responses were unaffected by O(2)(-) scavengers. Muscarinic type 3 receptor expression was unaffected by dietary salt intake. These results indicate that 1) a HS diet attenuates ACh reactivity in cerebral arteries by inhibiting NO release, 2) this attenuation is not due to production of a cyclooxygenase-derived vasoconstrictor or elevated O(2)(-) levels, and 3) alteration(s) in ACh signaling are located upstream from NO synthase.

Abstract
Increased salt intake attenuates the endothelium-dependent dilation of skeletal muscle arterioles by abolishing local nitric oxide (NO) activity. There is evidence of oxidative stress in arteriolar and venular walls of rats fed a high-salt diet, and depressed arteriolar responses to acetylcholine (ACh) in these rats are reversed by scavengers of reactive oxygen species (ROS). In this study, we tested the hypothesis that this salt-dependent increase in microvascular ROS and the resulting attenuation of endothelium-dependent dilation are due to increased expression and/or activity of oxidant enzymes in the microvascular wall. Resting arteriolar and venular wall oxidant activity, as assessed by tetranitroblue tetrazolium reduction, was consistently higher in the spinotrapezius muscle of rats fed a high-salt diet (7% NaCl, HS) for 4-5 wk than in those fed a normal diet (0.45% NaCl, NS) for the same duration. Western analysis of protein from isolated microvessels showed no difference between HS and NS rats in the expression of NAD(P)H oxidase or xanthine oxidase. Inhibition of NAD(P)H oxidase and/or xanthine oxidase with diphenyleneiodonium chloride and oxypurinol, respectively, reduced resting arteriolar wall oxidant activity to normal levels in HS rats but had no effect in NS rats, suggesting that the basal activities of NAD(P)H oxidase and xanthine oxidase are increased in HS microvessels. However, inhibition of these enzymes in HS rats did not restore normal arteriolar responses to ACh, suggesting that this stimulus activates an alternate source of ROS that eliminates the role of NO in the subsequent dilation.

Abstract
This study determined the effects of hypoxia on diameter, vascular smooth muscle (VSM) transmembrane potential (E(m)), and vascular cAMP levels for in vitro cannulated skeletal muscle resistance arteries (gracilis arteries) from Sprague-Dawley rats fed a low-salt (LS) or a high-salt (HS) diet. Arterial diameter and VSM E(m) were measured in response to hypoxia, iloprost, cholera toxin, forskolin, and aprikalim. In HS rats, arterial dilation and VSM hyperpolarization after hypoxia, iloprost, and cholera toxin were impaired versus responses in LS rats, whereas responses to forskolin and aprikalim were unaltered. Blockade of prostaglandin H(2) and thromboxane A(2) receptors had no effect on responses to hypoxia or iloprost in vessels from both rat groups, suggesting that inappropriate activation of these receptors does not contribute to the impaired hypoxic dilation with HS. Hypoxia, cholera toxin, and iloprost increased vascular cAMP levels in vessels of LS rats only, whereas forskolin increased cAMP levels in all vessels. These data suggest that reduced hypoxic dilation of skeletal muscle microvessels in rats on a HS diet may reflect an impaired ability of VSM to produce cAMP after exposure to prostacyclin.

Abstract
Resistance arteries (100-150 microm) were isolated from the gracilis muscle of normotensive Sprague-Dawley rats placed on a high-salt (HS) diet (4.0% NaCl) for 3-7 days. Exposure to the HS diet eliminated vascular relaxation in response to hypoxia (PO2 reduction to 35-40 Torr) and iloprost, a stable analog of prostacyclin. Vasodilator responses were restored in arteries isolated from chronically instrumented HS rats receiving a continuous intravenous infusion of either angiotensin II (ANG II; 5-6 ng x kg(-1) x min(-1)) or ANG II plus the AT2 receptor blocker PD-123319 (5 microg x kg(-1) x min(-1)) for 3 days before the isolated vessel studies. In contrast, coinfusion of the AT1 receptor blocker losartan (20 microg x kg(-1) x min(-1)) or coinfusion of both receptor blockers with ANG II eliminated the protective effect of ANG II to restore dilator responses to hypoxia and iloprost. Neither a HS diet nor ANG II infusion affected the dilation of gracilis arteries in response to direct activation of adenylyl cyclase by forskolin, suggesting that the effect of both the HS diet and the ANG II on the vasculature is mediated upstream from second messenger systems. These findings indicate that the protective effect of ANG II to maintain vasodilator reactivity in resistance arteries of rats on a HS diet is mediated via the AT1 receptor subtype.

Abstract
In normotensive rats, an increase in dietary salt leads to decreased arteriolar responsiveness to acetylcholine (ACh) because of suppressed local nitric oxide (NO) activity. We evaluated the possibility that generation of reactive oxygen species in the arteriolar wall is responsible for this loss of NO activity. Arteriolar responses to iontophoretically applied ACh were examined in the superfused spinotrapezius muscle of Sprague-Dawley rats fed a low-salt (LS; 0.45%) or high-salt diet (HS; 7%) for 4-5 wk. Responses to ACh were significantly depressed in HS rats but returned to normal in the presence of the oxidant scavengers superoxide dismutase + catalase or 2,2,6, 6-tetamethylpiperidine-N-oxyl (TEMPO) + catalase. Arteriolar responses to the NO donor sodium nitroprusside were similar in HS and LS rats. Arteriolar and venular wall oxidant activity, as determined by reduction of tetranitroblue tetrazolium, was significantly greater in HS rats than in LS rats. Exposure to TEMPO + catalase reduced microvascular oxidant levels to normal in HS rats. These data suggest that a high-salt diet leads to increased generation of reactive oxygen species in striated muscle microvessels, and this increased oxidative state may be responsible for decreased endothelium-dependent responses associated with high salt intake.

Abstract
The present study evaluated the contribution of cytochrome P-450 omega-hydroxylase in modulating the reactivity of cremaster muscle arterioles in normotensive rats on high-salt (HS) and low-salt (LS) diet and in rats with reduced renal mass hypertension (RRM-HT). Changes in arteriolar diameter in response to ACh, sodium nitroprusside (SNP), ANG II, and elevated O(2) were measured via television microscopy under control conditions and following cytochrome P-450 omega-hydroxylase inhibition with 17-octadecynoic acid (17-ODYA) or N-methylsulfonyl-12,12-dibromododec-11-enamide (DDMS). In normotensive rats on either LS or HS diet, resting tone was unaffected and arteriolar reactivity to ACh or SNP was minimally affected by cytochrome P-450 omega-hydroxylase inhibition. In RRM-HT rats, cytochrome P-450 omega-hydroxylase inhibition reduced resting tone and significantly enhanced arteriolar dilation to ACh and SNP. Treatment with 17-ODYA or DDMS inhibited arteriolar constriction to ANG II and O(2) in all the groups, although the degree of inhibition was greater in RRM-HT than in normotensive animals. These results suggest that metabolites of cytochrome P-450 omega-hydroxylase contribute to the altered reactivity of skeletal muscle arterioles to vasoconstrictor and vasodilator stimuli in RRM-HT.

Abstract
Sprague-Dawley rats were fed either a high-salt (HS, 4.0% NaCl) or a low-salt (LS, 0.4% NaCl) diet for 3 days (short-term) or 4-8 weeks (chronic). Vasoconstrictor responses to angiotensin II and norepinephrine were determined in isolated skeletal muscle resistance arteries and in distal arterioles of the in situ cremaster muscle. Myogenic responses to increases in transmural pressure were also assessed in skeletal muscle resistance arteries of animals on high- or low-salt diets. Chronic (but not short-term) HS diet selectively potentiated angiotensin II-induced constriction of skeletal muscle resistance arteries relative to vessels from LS controls. Myogenic responses and norepinephrine-induced constriction of resistance arteries were unaffected by either chronic or short-term HS diet. Constriction of cremasteric arterioles in response to angiotensin II and norepinephrine was unaffected by chronic or short-term elevations in dietary salt intake. These data suggest that chronic elevations in dietary salt intake lead to a selective increase in the constriction of skeletal muscle resistance arteries to angiotensin II that may allow these vessels to continue to regulate their tone in response to this peptide, despite the suppression of angiotensin II that occurs with high-salt diet.
