ABSTRACT Treadmill walking produced a prompt reduction in serum cortisol in 10 of 12 healthy military men. In contrast, two subjects, with pre-exercise tachycardia and apprehension, showed an increase in serum cortisol with treadmill exercise. In each group, the changes produced by exercise were still evident 30 and 60 minutes after the 30-minute treadmill walk. Urine collected before and after exercise contained similar amounts of 11-hydroxy- and 17-hydroxycorticosteroid material. These results may be explained by an increase in cortisol utilization during exercise and/or by a change in its distribution. The data indicate that in the absence of psychic factors, non-exhaustive exercise is not associated with pituitary adrenocortical activation.

1. Haemodynamic and renin responses to dynamic exercise before and after intravenous β-adrenoreceptor blockade with propranolol were compared in twenty-one patients with essential hypertension and either high (n = 7), normal (n = 7) or low plasma renin activity (n = 7). 2. Renin and heart-rate responses to exercise and β-receptor blockade diminished from high-renin to normal and to low-renin patients, effects which were blunted with increasing age. 3. Among the renin groups cardiac output, stroke volume, diastolic pulmonary artery pressure, systemic pressure and peripheral vascular resistance as well as their changes produced by exercise and acute β-receptor blockade were not significantly different. 4. Long-term anti-hypertensive propranolol effects correlated with the pre-treatment renin status, renin stimulation and its suppression by acute β-receptor blockade as well as with the exercise tachycardia and the patient's age. 5. The results suggest different adrenergic control mechanisms in renin sub-types of essential hypertension, age being a modulating factor.

1. The effects of 160 mg of propranolol and 160 mg of a long-acting (LA) formulation of propranolol were studied in healthy subjects. 2. Both drugs reduced an exercise tachycardia but the peak was less and the 24 h effect greater after long-acting propranolol than after propranolol. 3. These differences were maintained on repeated dosing for 8 days. 4. In contrast to single doses of 400 mg of sotalol, 160 mg of oxprenolol and 160 mg of slow-release oxprenolol, the peak effect of long-acting propranolol was less and that at 24 h was greater.

Our objective was to study the role of vasopressinergic synapses at the nucleus tractus solitarii (NTS) in the modulation of exercise-induced tachycardia. We evaluated the effect of NTS administration of vasopressin (AVP) or vasopressin antagonist (AVPant) on heart rate (HR) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) responses during dynamic exercise in male rats with chronic arterial and NTS cannulas. Sedentary (S) and trained (T) animals were tested at three or four exercise levels (from 0.4 up to 1.4 km/h) after NTS injection of AVP or AVPant 20–30 min before treadmill exercise. Plasma and regional brain levels of AVP were measured in separate groups of S and T rats at rest and immediately after acute exercise. When administered into the NTS, exogenous AVP (20 pmol) caused a small but significant decrease in baseline HR and potentiated the tachycardiac response to mild to moderate exercise intensities (on average, increases of 35–46 beats/min over control tachycardic response). The potentiation of exercise tachycardia by AVP was long lasting and more pronounced in T than in S rats. Even 2 days after NTS AVP injection, there was evidence for an alteration in the HR response to exercise. Mediation by V1 receptors was supported by the blunted tachycardiac response to exercise after administration of a V1 antagonist d(CH2)5Tyr MeAVP into the NTS in both T and S rats (average reductions of 23–34 and 13–19 beats/min below control tachycardia, respectively). No changes were observed in baseline MAP or the exercise-induced pressor responses. There were specific changes in brain stem AVP levels that were related to the exercise treatment. T rats showed a marked increase in dorsal and ventral brain stem AVP content after acute exercise. There were no changes in hypothalamus, median eminence, posterior pituitary, or plasma AVP. These data indicate that vasopressinergic synapses and V1 receptors in the NTS are involved in the potentiation of tachycardic response to exercise. The vasopressinergic mechanism operates in both S and T rats, but training alters the sensitization of V1receptors by AVP.
