- High blood pressure, or hypertension is not only a disease but also a risk factor for cardiac, cerebral and renal pathology. It is considered that 25-40% of the adult population has hypertension. In more than 90% of cases the hypertension is of unknown cause, that is, the so-called "essential hypertension”. Therefore, the provision of predictors of hypertension is of utmost importance both for public health management and for the development of antihypertensive treatments.
- the pressure inside the arteries depends on the resistance of the vessels (that is, the diameter of the blood vessels), which in turn is controlled by the contraction of smooth muscle cells from their walls (arterial tone).
- the control of arterial tone depends on a calcium signal in vascular smooth muscle, which comes mainly from an entry of Ca 2+ through voltage-dependent channels and its release from intracellular deposits.
- a key element in the control of vascular tone is the K + channel dependent on Ca 2+ and voltage (also known as the BK channel or MaxiK channel), which associates local increases in intracellular Ca 2+ with an increase in activity of the canal and vascular relaxation (cf. JH Jaggar et al., "Calcium sparks in smooth muscle", Am. J. Phvsiol. Cell Physiol. 2000, vol. 278, pp. C235-6).
