摘要：

The effects of porcine relaxin (pRXN) on arterial blood pressure and on the release of vasopressin (VP) and oxytocin (OT) were investigated in urethane-anesthetized rats at different stages of pregnancy and lactation. Acute i.v. pRXN (5 mu g) caused a significant increase in systolic and diastolic blood pressure in pregnant and lactating rats. However, the presser response was attenuated from Day 14 of pregnancy to Day 1 of lactation. The hormone had no effect on blood pressure in Day 16, Day 19, or Day 21 pregnant rats. At all stages of pregnancy and lactation, i.v. pRXN caused a significant increase in plasma VP concentrations. This response was attenuated in Day 19 and Day 21 pregnant and in Day 1 lactating rats. intravenous pRXN also caused a significant, short-term increase in plasma OT in pregnant and lactating rats. The OT response to pRXN was attenuated on Day 16 of pregnancy, and pRXN had no effect on plasma OT in late-pregnant rats. The data in this study demonstrate that pRXN causes an increase in both arterial blood pressure and VP and OT release in anesthetized pregnant and lactating rats. However, these effects are either reduced or not observed in late-pregnant and early-lactating rats.
