Abstract: | The responses of basilar arteries (BAs) to serotonin were attenuated by high \(P_{CO_2 } \) (86±1 mm Hg) and the pH matched acidotic solution ( \(P_{CO_2 } \) 37±1 mm Hg), whereas the responses of middle cerebral arteries (MCAs) were not. High \(P_{CO_2 } \) decreased the basal tone of both arteries, and the changes in basal tone due to high \(P_{CO_2 } \) were not influenced by 3×10?7 M imipramine, 10?5 M pargyline or 10?4 M aspirin. The responses of BAs to serotonin were attenuated by high \(P_{CO_2 } \) in the presence of imipramine, pargyline and aspirin. The responses of MCAs to serotonin were not influenced by high \(P_{CO_2 } \) in the presence of pargyline and aspirin, but attenuated by high \(P_{CO_2 } \) in the presence of imipramine. |
