Arterial wall metabolism in experimental hypertension of coarctation of the aorta of short duration

RESUMO
Coarctation of the mid-thoracic aorata was surgically produced in mongrel dogs which were sacrificed from 4-12 wk after the operation. As compared to the findings in control animals, the sodium, chloride, and water content of the hypetensive portion of the coarcted thoracic aorta was significantly elevated, whereas the electrolyte and water content of the relatively normotensive portion of the coarcted aorta was normal. The sodium, potassium, and water content of the pulmonary artery, skeletal muscle, and cardiac muscle of the coarcted dog was not altered. These observations suggest that an elevated arterial pressure may influence the electrolyte and water composition of the arteries.
