| Research Abstract |
Recent evidence has suggested that the metabolic and cardiovascular rhythms are subject to regulation by overlapping molecular pathways, indicating that dysregulation of metabolic cycles could desynchronize the normal diurnal rhythm of blood pressure (BP). However, little is known about the impact of changes in metabolic cycles on BP diurnal rhythm. In the present study, we found that spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR), which develop essential hypertension with disrupted diurnal BP rhythms, exhibit attenuated feeding rhythm. More importantly, the correction of abnormal feeding rhythms in SHR restored the daily BP rhythm. These results indicate that the metabolic cycle is an important determinant of the cardiovascular diurnal rhythm.
