A possible involvement of endocannabinoids in a chronic model of endotoxemia was assessed by measuring the regional (renal, mesenteric, hindquarters) hemodynamic responses to continuous 24-h LPS infusion (150 μg·kg−1·h−1) in conscious, male Sprague-Dawley rats, in the absence or presence of the cannabinoid (CB1) receptor antagonist AM-251 (3 mg/kg). AM-251 inhibited the tachycardic and hindquarters vasodilator effects of LPS, but did not influence the other hemodynamic changes. In subsequent experiments, it was shown that the tachycardic and hindquarters vasodilator effects of LPS were also inhibited by the nonselective β-adrenoceptor antagonist propranolol. In addition, the late (at 24 h) hindquarters vasodilator effects of LPS were inhibited by the β2-adrenoceptor antagonist ICI-118551. Against the background of our previous work showing β-adrenoceptor involvement in the cardiovascular effects of exogenous cannabinoids, we conclude that AM-251 may have been inhibiting endocannabinoid-modulated, sympathoadrenal-mediated activation of vasodilator β-adrenoceptors in LPS-infused rats rather than suppressing a direct vasodilator action of endocannabinoids.

1. Seven conscious dogs received arginine-vasopressin infusions (100 and 1000 fmol min−1 kg−1) through catheters implanted in the left vertebral artery or the inferior vena cava while arterial pressure, cardiac output (electromagnetic flowmeter) and heart rate were measured. 2. Despite similar increases in plasma vasopressin concentrations, intravertebral administration induced a lesser increase in mean arterial pressure and a greater decrease in heart rate than the same infusion given intravenously. 3. These results suggest that vasopressin has an effect on structures of the central nervous system involved in cardiovascular control, possibly by affecting the baroreceptor reflex.
