Abstract Background: Beta-blockers are increasingly prescribed while the effects of beta-adrenergic receptor blockade on cardio-pulmonary exercise test (CPET) derived parameters remain under-studied. Methods: 21 young healthy adults repeated 3 CPET at an interval of 7 days at the same time of the day. The tests were performed 3 hours after a random, double blind, cross-over single dose intake of placebo, 2.5 mg bisoprolol or 5 mg bisoprolol. Gaz exchange, heart rate and blood pressure were measured at rest and during cyclo-ergometric CPET.Results: Maximal workload and VO2max were unaffected by the treatment, with maximal respiratory exchange ratio > 1.15 in all tests. A beta-blocker dose-dependent effect reduced resting and maximal blood pressure and heart rate and the chronotropic response to exercise, evaluated by the heart rate/VO2 slope (placebo: 2,9 ± 0,4 beat/ml/kg; 2,5 mg bisoprolol: 2,4 ± 0,5 beat/ml/kg; 5 mg bisoprolol: 2,3 ± 0,4 beat/ml/kg, p<0.001). Ventilation efficiency measured by the VE/VCO2 slope and the ventilatory equivalent for CO2 at the ventilatory threshold were not affected by beta1-receptor blockade. Post-exercise chronotropic recovery measured after 1 min was enhanced under beta1-blocker (placebo: 26 ± 7 bpm; 2,5 mg bisoprolol: 32 ± 6 bpm; 5 mg bisoprolol: 33 ± 6 bpm, p<0.01).Conclusion: The present results suggest that a single dose of bisoprolol does not affect metabolism, respiratory response and exercise capacity. However, beta-adrenergic blockade dose-dependently reduced exercise hemodynamic response by lowering the pressure and chronotropic responses.

Because major cardiovascular disease states are characterized by defects in adenylyl cyclase regulation, it becomes important to understand the mechanisms by which adenylyl cyclase activators affect inotropy and chronotropy in intact conscious animals. Accordingly, we examined the inotropic and chronotropic responses to forskolin in 11 normal conscious, chronically instrumented dogs and 3 dogs with ventricular denervation (VD). Left ventricular first derivative of pressure (LV dP/dt) increased by 96 +/- 7%, P < 0.05, in response to forskolin (50 nmol.kg-1.min-1) in normal dogs and by significantly less, 52 +/- 14%, in VD dogs. Circulating norepinephrine (NE) levels increased similarly in both groups (from 226 +/- 18 to 389 +/- 33 pg/ml in normal dogs, from 177 +/- 23 to 329 +/- 71 pg/ml in VD dogs). In the presence of ganglionic blockade, the increase in LV dP/dt in response to forskolin was reduced (+62 +/- 4%) in normal dogs but was unchanged in VD dogs (+52 +/- 12%). Ganglionic blockade abolished the increase in circulating NE levels in both groups. Increases in heart rate in the presence of ganglionic blockade (+54 +/- 6 beats/min) were less than in the presence of atropine alone (+92 +/- 10 beats/min). Notably, the LV dP/dt and heart rate responses to forskolin were further attenuated by beta-adrenergic receptor blockade in the presence and absence of ganglionic blockade. Morphine also attenuated the increases in both LV dP/dt and plasma NE in response to forskolin. Increases in LV dP/dt in response to NKH-477 (30 micrograms/kg), a water-soluble forskolin derivative, were similar before and after ganglionic blockade (+63 +/- 8 and +51 +/- 10%, respectively). However, in vitro experiments in LV sarcolemmal membrane preparations demonstrated that stimulation of adenylyl cyclase by forskolin and NKH-477 was not affected by beta-adrenergic receptor blockade. These results indicate that in conscious dogs, inotropic and chronotropic effects of forskolin are not only due to direct activation of adenylyl cyclase, but the effects also are mediated by neural mechanisms and potentiated by the prevailing level of sympathetic tone.

Adrenergic Receptor Blockade

To examine the influence of alpha-adrenergic vasoconstriction on the aerobic capacity of dogs, we calculated O2 consumption (VO2) by the Fick method during submaximal and maximal exertion before and during alpha-adrenergic blockade with phentolamine. Regional blood flow was measured with radioactive microspheres. alpha-Adrenergic receptor blockade reduced VO2 by 12.9% during submaximal and 17.9% during maximal exercise. Arterial and venous lactic acid approximately doubled during both levels of stress in the presence of alpha-adrenergic receptor blockade. Calculated VO2 decreased because arteriovenous O2 (A-V)O2 extraction was reduced by 11.6% during submaximal exercise. During maximal exercise a 16.7% decrease in (A-V)O2 extraction and a 5.7% decrease in cardiac output contributed to the decrease in maximal VO2. During both levels of stress, (A-V)O2 extraction was reduced because arterial O2 content was decreased. Since circulating hematocrits during exercise were reduced by alpha-adrenergic receptor blockade (43-38%), we postulate that splenic contraction likely was inhibited. Additionally, distribution of blood flow to skeletal muscle and visceral organs was unaltered by alpha-blockade. To examine the importance of splenic contraction during maximal exercise, we examined hemodynamic and metabolic responses before and after splenectomy. Compared with the spleen-intact condition, splenectomized dogs demonstrated a 12.6% reduction in VO2 as a result of 7.7 and 5.5% reductions in (A-V)O2 extraction and cardiac output, respectively. (A-V)O2 extraction was reduced because arterial O2 content and circulating hematocrit during exercise were decreased. Therefore, in the exercising dog, alpha-adrenergic receptor blockade reduces O2 consumption and causes a shift to anaerobic metabolism.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
