1 In hypertension, a decrease of the vascular beta-adrenergic relaxation has been described. However, the specific involvement of each beta-adrenoceptor (beta-AR) subtype, in particular the low-affinity state of beta(1)-AR, has not yet been evaluated. We investigated whether the low-affinity state of beta(1)-AR-induced relaxation was impaired in Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats (SHR).2 The relaxant responses to CGP 12177 and cyanopindolol, low-affinity state beta(1)-AR agonists ( with beta(1)-/beta(2)-AR antagonistic and partial beta(3)-AR agonistic properties) were evaluated on thoracic aortic rings isolated from 12-weeks-old Wistar Kyoto rats (WKY) and SHR.3 In WKY, CGP 12177 and cyanopindolol produced an endothelium and nitric oxide ( NO)independent relaxation. CGP 12177-induced endothelium-independent relaxation was not modified either by beta(1)-, beta(2)-AR (nadolol) or beta(3)-AR (L-748337 or SR 59230A) antagonists but was significantly reduced by high concentrations of CGP 20712A ( P
