We utilized variations in caloric
availability and ambient temperature (Ta) to examine
interrelationships between energy expenditure and cardiovascular
function in mice. Male C57BL/6J mice (n = 6) were
implanted with telemetry devices and housed in metabolic chambers for
measurement of mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR),
O2 consumption (
O2), and
locomotor activity. Fasting (Ta = 23°C), initiated
at the onset of the dark phase, resulted in large and transient
depressions in MAP, HR,
O2, and
locomotor activity that occurred during hours 6-17,
which suggests torporlike episodes. Food restriction (14 days, 60% of
baseline intake) at Ta = 23°C resulted in
progressive reductions in MAP and HR across days that were coupled with
an increasing occurrence of episodic torporlike reductions in HR (<300
beats/min) and
O2 (<1.0 ml/min). Exposure to thermoneutrality (Ta = 30°C,
n = 6) reduced baseline light-period MAP (
14 ± 2 mmHg) and HR (
184 ± 12 beats/min). Caloric restriction at
thermoneutrality produced further reductions in MAP and HR, but
indications of torporlike episodes were absent. The results reveal that
mice exhibit robust cardiovascular responses to both acute and chronic
negative energy balance. Furthermore, we conclude that Ta
is a very important consideration when assessing cardiovascular
function in mice.
