- Control mechanisms that regulate
blood pressure and blood flow

Vessels
• Pulm./coronary
• most others
constrict dilate
constrict no effect
How is Heart Rate Regulated?
• Intrinsic pacemaker rate = 100 bpm
• Autonomic Influences
– SNS------> B1 receptor-------> Increased
HR
– PSNS-> Muscarinic (Ach)--> Decreased
HR
• Stretch Reflex (Bainbridge):
Increased filling------> Increased
HR
• Drugs
What Factors Affect Contractility?
- Anything that increases Ca++
availability in the heart muscle cell will
increase Contractility.
- Anything that decreases Ca++
availability in the heart muscle cell will
decrease Contractility.

Revision Alastair’s lecture
Blood pressure regulation
Case 1: Phil‘s treatment
-
Diuretic
-
-
Diuretic + ß-blocker
-
-
BP decrease not sufficient
BP decrease still not sufficient
Diuretic + ß-blocker + ACE inhibitor
-
BP decrease sufficient
Struggling with adverse effects
Treatment of hypertension
Treatment of hypertension
-
Diuretics and ß-blockers are first-line
drugs
-
Mode of action in both cases unclear
-
Several groups of drugs reduce BP by
decreasing vasoconstrictor tone and
hence peripheral resistance, e.g.
ACE inhibitors
Ca antagonists
Thiazid diuretics
-
initially:
BP falls because of a decrease in
blood volume
venous return
cardiac output
-
gradually:
cardiac output returns to normal
-
however, hypotensive effect remains
because peripheral resistance has
decreased
Thiazid diuretics
-
No direct effect on blood vessels
-
Vasodilation seems to be associated
with small but persistent reduction in
body Na+
-
Act on kidney
inhibit NaCl reabsorption
-
Excretion of Na+, Cl- and
accompanying H2O is increased
Thiazid diuretics
-
however, also K+ excretion increased
-
Safe drug, orally active
-
Act within 1-2 hours
Duration of 12 hours
-
Adverse effects are important because
drug may be taken for life
Thiazid diuretics: adverse effects
-
Weakness
-
Loss of libido, impotence
-
Diarrhoea
-
Tinnitus
-
Metabolic side-effects:
Thiazid diuretics: adverse effects
-
Metabolic side-effects:
-
hypokalaemia:
can cause arrythmias
-
hyperuricaemia:
May precipitate gout
-
lipids:
Increase cholesterol levels, at
least during the first 6 months of
administration
ß-adrenoreceptor antagonists
-
initially:
Produce a fall in BP by decrease in
cardiac output
-
gradually:
Cardiac output returns to normal, but
BP remains low
-
Unknown mechanism “resets”
peripheral vascular resistance at a
lower level
ß-blockers: adverse effects
-
Cold hands
-
Loss of libido, impotence
-
Fatigue
-
Serious side effects:
provocation of asthma
heart failure
conductance block
-
Tend to raise trigycerides and
decrease HDL-cholosterol
ß-blockers:
-
Vary in lipid solubility and
cardioselectivity
-
All block ß1-receptors and are equally
effective in reducing BP
-
More lipid-soluble drugs: more rapidly
absorbed, more first-pass hepatic
metabolism, more rapidly eliminated
-
Cardioselective ß-blockers may have
sufficient ß2-activity to cause
bronchospasm in patients with asthma
Vasodilator drugs:
-
ACE-inhibitors:
Inhibit synthesis of angiotensin II
which is powerful vasoconstrictor
-
Ca antagonists:
tone of vascular smooth muscle is
determined by cytosolic Ca2+
concentration
prevent influx of Ca and as result
inhibit contraction
dilate arteries  reduce BP
Case: Gerry
-
55 yr, sees his GP because of nose
bleeding
-
BP 180 / 100 mm Hg
-
newly diagnosed with primary
hypertension
-
Lifestyle changes recommended and
ß-blocker prescribed
-
Second morning, very early he fell in
the bathroom
Case: Gerry
-
Massive problems with orthostatic
hypotension
-
What would you recommend?
Case: Paul
-
healthy, successful modern
pentathlete
Took ß-blockers shortly before pistol
shooting event
-
Great results
-
Change in follow-up of events: Now
running event immediately after
shooting and not the next day
-
Great results in shooting but
catastrophy in running
Case: Paul
-
Can you explain this?
-
What does it tell you about
pharmacokinetic and –dynamic
of ß-blockers?
