Abstract

We examined the effect of high salt intake on mean arterial pressure and circadian blood pressure rhythm in Otsuka Long-Evans Tokushima Fatty (OLETF) rats, a model of type II diabetes mellitus. Mean arterial pressure, fasting blood glucose, and fasting plasma insulin in OLETF rats were higher than those in LETO rats, their normoglycemic controls. The amplitude of circadian blood pressure rhythm in LETO rats was smaller than that in OLETF rats. High salt intake elevated blood pressure and exacerbated hyperinsulinemia, but did not change the circadian blood pressure rhythm in OLETF rats.
