We tested the hypothesis that endothelial dysfunction induced by angiotensin II (Ang-hypertension) would impair regulatory control of vascular smooth muscle L-type Ca2+ channels by endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS). We studied cerebral lenticulostriate arterioles (LSAs) from control rats, from rats infused with Ang (240 mug.kg(-1).h(-1) SQ x4 days), which were normotensive, and from Ang-hypertensive rats (AHR; 240 mug.kg(-1).h(-1) x28 days). Patch-clamp measurements on isolated LSA smooth muscle cells (SMCs) showed a significant increase in Ca2+ channel availability with 4- and 28-day infusions versus controls (0.47+/-0.03 and 0.66+/-0.05 vs 0.36+/-0.03 pS/pF, respectively; P
