The aim of this study was to examine the influence of vascular endothelium on the relaxation induced by increased extracellular Mg2+ concentrations on isolated and noradrenaline-precontracted aorta from deoxycorticosterone acetate-salt (DOCA-salt) hypertensive and normotensive rats. In Mg(2+)-free physiologic salt solution (PSS), addition of Mg2+ (0.1-6.0 nM) caused concentration-dependent relaxation of noradrenaline-precontracted aorta with intact or disrupted endothelium. Mg(2+)-induced relaxation in intact aorta, however, was less in DOCA-salt hypertensive rats than in normotensive rats. When endothelium was disrupted, Mg(2+)-induced relaxation was depressed in aorta from both DOCA-salt hypertensive and normotensive rats. The same observations were made in presence of N-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME), an inhibitor of endothelium-derived relaxing factor nitric oxide (EDRF/NO) biosynthesis. Mg(2+)-induced relaxation following contraction with noradrenaline was significantly less in intact aorta treated with L-NAME from DOCA-salt hypertensive rats than in intact aorta from normotensive rats. Indomethacin did not affect Mg(2+)-induced relaxation in intact aorta from normotensive rats whereas indomethacin significantly increased it in DOCA-salt hypertensive rats. It is concluded that (1) Mg(2+)-induced relaxation can be mediated by endothelium-dependent mechanisms implicating EDRF/NO; (2) the influence of EDRF/NO is more pronounced on the impaired Mg(2+)-induced relaxation of aorta from DOCA-salt hypertensive rats; (3) Mg(2+)-induced relaxation seems masked by vasoconstrictor prostaglandin release in DOCA-salt hypertensive rats; (4) these differences between normotensive and hypertensive rats could be related to the impaired endothelial function in aorta from DOCA-salt hypertensive rats.
