Animal studies suggest that prostanoids (i.e., such as prostacyclin) may sensitize or impair baroreceptor and/or baroreflex responsiveness depending on the site of administration and/or inhibition. We tested the hypothesis that acute inhibition of cyclooxygenase (COX), the rate-limiting enzyme in prostanoid synthesis, impairs baroreflex regulation of cardiac period (R-R interval) and muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) in humans and augments pressor reactivity. Baroreflex sensitivity (BRS) was determined at baseline (preinfusion) and 60 min after (postinfusion) intravenous infusion of a COX antagonist (ketorolac; 45 mg) (24 ± 1 yr;n= 12) or saline (25 ± 1 yr;n= 12). BRS was assessed by using the modified Oxford technique (bolus intravenous infusion of nitroprusside followed by phenylephrine). BRS was quantified as the slope of the linear portion of the1) R-R interval-systolic blood pressure relation (cardiovagal BRS) and2) MSNA-diastolic blood pressure relation (sympathetic BRS) during pharmacological changes in arterial blood pressure. Ketorolac did not alter cardiovagal (19.4 ± 2.1 vs. 18.4 ± 2.4 ms/mmHg preinfusion and postinfusion, respectively) or sympathetic BRS (−2.9 ± 0.7 vs. −2.6 ± 0.4 arbitrary units·beat−1·mmHg−1) but significantly decreased a plasma biomarker of prostanoid generation (plasma thromboxane B2) by 53 ± 11%. Cardiovagal BRS (21.3 ± 3.8 vs. 21.2 ± 3.0 ms/mmHg), sympathetic BRS (−3.4 ± 0.3 vs. −3.2 ± 0.2 arbitrary units·beat−1·mmHg−1), and thromboxane B2(change in −1 ± 12%) were unchanged in the control (saline infusion) group. Pressor responses to steady-state incremental (0.5, 1.0, and 1.5 μg·kg−1·min−1) infusion (5 min/dose) of phenylephrine were not altered by ketorolac (n= 8). Collectively, these data indicate that acute pharmacological antagonism of the COX enzyme does not impair BRS (cardiovagal or sympathetic) or augment pressor reactivity in healthy young adults.
