Non‐technical summaryThe cardiovascular response to exercise is exaggerated in hypertension. This heightened circulatory responsiveness increases the risk of occurrence of an adverse cardiovascular event during and immediately following a bout of exercise. Accumulating evidence suggests the muscle metaboreflex, a chemically sensitive peripheral reflex originating in skeletal muscle, contributes significantly to this abnormal cardiovascular response to exercise. However, its role remains controversial. In addition, the receptor mechanisms underlying metaboreflex dysfunction in hypertension remain undetermined. To this end, the current investigation demonstrates that the metaboreflex is overactive in hypertensive rats eliciting exaggerated increases in sympathetic nerve activity and blood pressure. Importantly, the study shows, for the first time, that the metaboreflex dysfunction manifest in hypertension is mediated, in part, by activation of the skeletal muscle TRPv1 receptor. As such, the investigation identifies the muscle metaboreflex, specifically the TRPv1 receptor, as a potential target for the treatment of cardiovascular hyperexcitability during exercise in hypertension.
