KEY POINTS: We investigated the influence of arterial PCO2 ( PaCO2 ) with and without acutely elevated arterial pH and bicarbonate ([HCO3- ]) on cerebral blood flow (CBF) regulation in the internal carotid artery and vertebral artery. We assessed stepwise iso-oxic alterations in PaCO2 (i.e. cerebrovascular CO2 reactivity) prior to and following i.v. sodium bicarbonate infusion (NaHCO3- ) to acutely elevate arterial pH and [HCO3- ]. Total CBF was unchanged irrespective of a higher arterial pH at each matched stage of PaCO2 , indicating that CBF is acutely regulated by PaCO2 rather than arterial pH. The cerebrovascular responses to changes in arterial H+ /pH were altered in keeping with the altered relationship between PaCO2 and H+ /pH following NaHCO3- infusion (i.e. changes in buffering capacity). Total CBF was ∼7% higher following NaHCO3- infusion during isocapnic breathing providing initial evidence for a direct vasodilatory influence of HCO3- independent of PaCO2 levels.
ABSTRACT: Cerebral blood flow (CBF) regulation is dependent on the integrative relationship between arterial PCO2 ( PaCO2 ), pH and cerebrovascular tone; however, pre-clinical studies indicate that intrinsic sensitivity to pH, independent of changes in PaCO2 or intravascular bicarbonate ([HCO3- ]), principally influences cerebrovascular tone. Eleven healthy males completed a standardized cerebrovascular CO2 reactivity (CVR) test utilizing radial artery catheterization and Duplex ultrasound (CBF); consisting of matched stepwise iso-oxic alterations in PaCO2 (hypocapnia: -5, -10 mmHg; hypercapnia: +5, +10 mmHg) prior to and following i.v. sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3- ; 8.4%, 50 mEq 50 mL-1 ) to elevate pH (7.408 ± 0.020 vs. 7.461 ± 0.030; P < 0.001) and [HCO3- ] (26.1 ± 1.4 vs. 29.3 ± 0.9 mEq L-1 ; P < 0.001). Absolute CBF was not different at each stage of CO2 reactivity (P = 0.629) following NaHCO3- , irrespective of a higher pH (P < 0.001) at each matched stage of PaCO2 (P = 0.927). Neither hypocapnic (3.44 ± 0.92 vs. 3.44 ± 1.05% per mmHg PaCO2 ; P = 0.499), nor hypercapnic (7.45 ± 1.85 vs. 6.37 ± 2.23% per mmHg PaCO2 ; P = 0.151) reactivity to PaCO2 were altered pre- to post-NaHCO3- . When indexed against arterial [H+ ], the relative hypocapnic CVR was higher (P = 0.019) and hypercapnic CVR was lower (P = 0.025) following NaHCO3- , respectively. These changes in reactivity to [H+ ] were, however, explained by alterations in buffering between PaCO2 and arterial H+ /pH consequent to NaHCO3- . Lastly, CBF was higher (688 ± 105 vs. 732 ± 89 mL min-1 , 7% ± 12%; P = 0.047) following NaHCO3- during isocapnic breathing providing support for a direct influence of HCO3- on cerebrovascular tone independent of PaCO2 . These data indicate that in the setting of acute metabolic alkalosis, CBF is regulated by PaCO2 rather than arterial pH.
