Plasma concentrations of the vasoconstrictor Angiotensin II (AII) were measured in male human subjects before and after either rest or exposure to 100-dB white noise. Plasma AII concentrations decreased for subjects in the control (no noise) condition but remained high in the noise condition. In the noise exposure condition both the pre- and post-exposure AII concentrations were negatively but nonsignificantly correlated with TTS. The cardiovascular effects of noise appear to be mediated in part by AII.
