摘要
Healthy subjects were classified according to their percent increase in systolic blood pressure (SBP) after mental arithmetic test (MAT) as low (Delta SBP 9.3-15.1%, n = 15) and high (Delta SBP 35.1-45.4%, n = 15) responders. During MAT, low responders showed significantly (p < 0.01) increased plasma levels of beta-endorphin, cortisol, catecholamines, and atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) and decreased levels of endothelin-1, whereas high responders showed increased (p < 0.01) levels of Metenkephalin, dynorphin B, and catecholamines. Pretreatment with naloxone hydrochloride enhanced (p < 0.01) SEP, heart rate, noradrenaline, cortisol, and endothelin-1 levels, and reduced (p < 0.01) ANF in low responders in response to MAT, whereas it decreased (p < 0.01) hemodynamic parameters, noradrenaline, and endothelin-1 in high responders. The individual differences in hemodynamic and endocrine responses to MAT may depend on a different activation of the endogenous opioid. system. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Inc.
