[Membrane abnormalities and cellular hyperreactivity in different models of hypertension].
In various models of hypertension of genetic origin, a hypersensitivity of phospholipase C has been demonstrated to participate in the hyperreactivity of platelets toward a variety of vasoactive agents. Since this abnormality could not be observed in the absence of cell stimulation, it could not account for the increase in free Ca2+ which has been reported in resting platelets in primary hypertension. Likewise, in hypertensive subjects, platelets behave hyperactive when stimulated by ADP, although the stimulus has been demonstrated to be a poor activator of phospholipase C. In order to gain insight into the membrane alteration that could account for the cellular hyperactivity which characterizes hypertensive subjects, we investigated, in resting platelets, the kinetics of radioactive labeling of major membrane phospholipids. Isolated platelets were prepared from SHR (4w and 17w of age), SHR-SP, Dahl salt-resistant and salt-sensitive rats fed either a low or a high salt diet, DOCA-salt hypertensive rats and from the appropriate normotensive controls. Irrespective of the radioactive precursor used (32P-orthophosphate, 3H-glycerol, 3H-choline), the labeling of phosphatidylcholine (PC) was markedly (up to 20 fold) enhanced in SHR (whichever their age) and SHR-SP compared with WKY. This increase, specific of PC, could not be accounted for by differences either in the actual amount of PC or in the uptake of various labels, suggesting an increased PC turnover. Such an increase was also observed in platelets of Dahl hypertensive rats but not in those of DOCA-salt hypertensive rats.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
