Prostacyclin Production

To define the effects of physical activity on vascular fatty acid composition and prostanoid generation, spontaneously hypertensive and normotensive rats were made to swim at 34-35 degrees C for 5-7 wk. Fatty acids were determined by gas chromatography and prostanoids by high-performance liquid chromatography and electrochemical detection. A characteristic feature of swimming rats was a markedly reduced linoleic acid content in the iliac artery and the aorta; in normotensive swimming rats stearic acid and arachidonic acid contents were increased. These changes could not be attributed to a heat loss during swimming or to depressed growth characteristics. A chemical sympathectomy using guanethidine (60 mg/kg body wt daily) did not prevent the alterations in fatty acid composition. A higher arachidonic acid content was correlated with an increased generation of 6-ketoprostaglandin F1 alpha in the aorta of untreated rats and sympathectomized rats. It is concluded that swimming can alter the vascular fatty acid composition in a manner which results in an increased potential for prostacyclin production.
