Regional blood flow of brain tumors and normal brain tissue of rats before and during angiotensin II (AT II) -induced hypertension were measured using an electrolytic flowmeter and a laser flowmeter. Etoposide concentration in the tumor and brain tissue after intracarotid administration were also measured in brain tumor bearing rats with or with-out AT II-induced hypertension. A suspension of 5×105/10 μl 9L gliosarcoma cells was innoculated into the left caudate-putamen of CD Fischer 344 rats. Before induced hypertension, regional blood flow of the tumor (28.2±2.6ml/100 g/min ; mean±SEM) and the contralateral caudate-putamen (23.0±1.8ml/100g/min)) in the tumor bearing rats were significantly lower than that of the caudate-putamen (43.9±4.1ml/100g/min) in the normal rats (p<0.01).

Intravenous administration of AT II at a dose of 0. 4-0.6μg/body/min increased the mean arterial blood pressure from 96.5±4.7mmHg to 138.0±3.6mmHg. AT II-induced hypertension resulted in an approximate 1.8 (1.1-3.6)- fold increase in the regional tumor blood flow. On the other hand the regional blood flow of the contralateral caudate-putamen was slightly decreased at the rate of 6%. The mean concentration of etoposide with AT II-induced hypertension in the tumor tissue was 2.2-fold higher than that without AT II-induced hyper-tension. However, etoposide delivery to normal brain tissue was small. From these results, induced hypertension with intravenously administrated AT II selectively increase the tumor blood flow and drug delivery to brain tumor tissue. Intracarotid chemo-therapy with AT II-induced hypertension might contribute to enhance therapeutic effect of malig-nant brain tumors.
