Characteristic cardiovascular responses to capsaicin in representative WKY and SHR rats. In response to the intra-arterial administration of capsaicin (1.00 μg/100 μl) within the hindlimb, MAP was consistently larger in hypertensive compared with normotensive animals. The HR response to capsaicin was similar in WKY and SHR. Arrows demarcate administration of capsaicin.
