Plasma concentrations of growth hormone (GH) were measured after administration of clonidine (0.5 mg/kg) to spontaneously hypertensive (SH) rats and normotensive Wistar Kyoto controls. All rats were pretreated with reserpine (10 mg/kg). The GH response to clonidine was significantly higher in SH rats than in controls, indicating that in SH rats the responsiveness of post-synaptic alpha-adrenergic structures in the hypothalamus may be increased.
给自发性高血压（SH）大鼠和正常血压的Wistar Kyoto对照大鼠注射可乐定（0.5毫克/千克）后，测量其血浆生长激素（GH）浓度。所有大鼠均预先用利血平（10毫克/千克）进行预处理。SH大鼠对可乐定的GH反应明显高于对照组，这表明在SH大鼠中，下丘脑突触后α-肾上腺素能结构的反应性可能增强。
