Extraction and reconstitution of calponin and consequent contractile ability in permeabilized smooth muscle fibers

We demonstrate reduction and restoration of contractile ability in response to protein extraction and reconstitution in Triton X-100/glycerol-permeabilized smooth muscle fibers. Through significant reduction in the content of caldesmon (CaD), calponin (CaP), and the 20-kDa regulatory light chain (RLC) of myosin, but not other contractile proteins in "chemically skinned" fibers, we substantially reduced the contractile ability of these fibers, as measured by their ability to generate isometric force and to hydrolyze ATP by actomyosin Mg2+ ATPase. When the protein-depleted fibers were then reconstituted (either with a mixture of purified protein standards of CaD, CaP, and myosin RLC or with a protein extract from the demembranized muscle fibers containing CaD, CaP, and myosin RLC plus several low-molecular-mass proteins), all proteins used for reincorporation returned nearly to control levels, as did isometric force generation and rate of ATP hydrolysis. The fact that the low-molecular-mass proteins do not affect contractility in this model system indicates that our methods for reversible modulation of the content of CaP and CaD may provide a valuable tool for studying the thin-filament-based regulation of contractility.

Effects of anethole and structural analogues on the contractility of rat isolated aorta: Involvement of voltage-dependent Ca2+-channels

Anethole is a naturally occurring aromatic oxidant, present in a variety of medicinal plant extracts, which is commonly used by the food and beverage industry. Despite its widespread occurrence and commercial use, there is currently little information regarding effects of this compound on the vasculature. Therefore the actions of anethole on the contractility of rat isolated aorta were compared with those of eugenol, and their respective isomeric forms, estragole and isoeugenol. In aortic rings precontracted with phenylephrine (PE; 1 microM), anethole (10(-6) M-10(-4) M) induced contraction in preparations possessing an intact endothelium, but not in endothelium-denuded tissues. At higher concentrations (10(-3) M-10(-2) M), anethole-induced concentration-dependent and complete relaxation of all precontracted preparations, irrespective of whether the endothelium was intact or not, an action shared by eugenol, estragole and isoeugenol. The contractile and relaxant effects of anethole in PE-precontracted preparations were not altered by L-NAME (10 microM) or indomethacin (10 microM), indicating that neither nitric oxide nor prostaglandins were involved in these actions. The mixed profile of effects was not confined to PE-mediated contraction, since similar responses were obtained to anethole when tissues were precontracted with 25 mM KCl. Anethole and estragole (10(-6)-10(-4) M), but not eugenol or isoeugenol, increased the basal tonus of endothelium-denuded aortic rings, an action that was abolished by VDCC blockers nifedipine (1 microM) and diltiazem (1 microM), or by withdrawal of extracellular Ca(2+). Our data suggest complex effects of anethole on isolated blood vessels, inducing contraction at lower doses, mediated via opening of voltage-dependent Ca(2+)-channels, and relaxant effects at higher concentrations that are shared by structural analogues.     

Characterization of neurotensin binding to rat gastric smooth muscle receptor sites

The binding of monoiodo 125I-Trp11-neurotensin to purified rat gastric fundus smooth muscle plasma membranes was characterized. Specific binding of ligand in subcellular fractions from rat fundus smooth muscle showed a distribution that paralleled that of several plasma membrane marker enzymes. 125I-Trp11-neurotensin binding to smooth muscle plasma membranes at 25 degrees C was maximal at 30 min, reversible and saturable. Scatchard analysis of equilibrium data indicated the existence of two classes of binding sites with dissociation constants (Kd) of 56 pmol and 1.92 nM, and corresponding binding capacities (Bmax) of 6.6 fmol/mg and 11.4 fmol/mg of membrane protein. Analogues and fragments of neurotensin competed for 125I-Trp11-neurotensin binding with a rank order of potency similar to that previously reported for their contracting effect in rat fundus strips. Na+ decreased in a concentration dependent manner the binding of labelled ligand to the high affinity site. At 100 mM, Na+ induced a 6-fold increase in the IC50 of neurotensin for inhibition of 125I-Trp11-neurotensin binding. At this concentration of Na+, the IC50 for neurotensin was 1 nM, a value close to the Kd of the low affinity site.     

Effects of oxidative modification of cholesterol in isolated low density lipoproteins on cultured smooth muscle cells

Summary It has been proposed that low density lipoprotein (LDL) must undergo oxidative modification before it can participate in atherosclerosis. The present paper studied the effect of cholesterol oxidation in LDL on cultured vascular smooth muscle cells. LDL was oxidized by cholesterol oxidase (3--hydroxy-steroid oxidase) which catalyzes the oxidation of cholesterol to 4-cholesten-3 one and other oxidized cholesterol derivatives. Cholesterol oxidase treatment of LDL did not result in lipid peroxidation. Cultured rabbit aortic smooth muscle cells were morphologically changed following exposure to cholesterol oxidized LDL. Nile red, a hydrophobic probe which can selectively stain intracellular lipid droplets, was applied to detect the cellular lipid content after treatment with oxidized or non-oxidized LDL cholesterol. LDL which did not undergo oxidation of its cholesterol had no effect on the cells. However, cellular nile red fluorescence intensity was increased as the pre-incubation time of cholesterol oxidase with LDL increased. This was supported by HPLC analysis which revealed that the oxidized cholesterol content of treated cells increased. These findings suggest that cholesterol oxidation of LDL can alter lipid deposition in the cells and change cell morphology. The oxidation of cholesterol in vivo may play an important role in the modification of LDL which could contribute to the generation of the lipid-laden foam cells.

Different affinity states of CCK1 receptors on pancreatic acini and gastric smooth muscle in the rat

It has recently been shown that—after chronic cholecystokinin (CCK) treatment—an adaptation of pancreatic secretory but not gastric motor function does occur. Recent studies indicate that the CCK₁-receptor exists in two (i.e. high and low) affinity states, which could be distinguished by the CCK-analogue JMV-180. CCK occupancy of high and low affinity sites is thought to be related to the initiation of different intracellular events and consequent biological responses. Affinity states of CCK₁-receptors on pancreas and gastrointestinal (GI) smooth muscle could be different and this can offer an explanation for the different effects of CCK on pancreatic and gastric growth. We therefore studied the affinity states of CCK₁-receptors on isolated rat pancreatic acini and gastric smooth muscle preparations. When acini were incubated with increasing concentrations of CCK-8, a biphasic (i.e. stimulation followed by inhibition) effect on amylase release was observed. JMV-180 caused only stimulation of enzyme release and combined JMV-180 and CCK stimulation (at submaximal doses) resulted in an additive secretory response. CCK-8 induced contractions of pyloric, antral and fundic muscle in a concentration-dependent manner. The response was monophasic, reaching a plateau. JMV-180 had only a very weak effect on these preparations. On the contrary, it inhibited CCK-induced contractions in a competitive manner, the concentration–response curve to CCK being shifted to the right by the CCK analogue. Our data suggest that the affinity states of CCK₁-receptors on rat pancreatic and gastric tissue are different. On pancreatic acini CCK₁-receptors exist in both high- and low-affinity states whose occupation is followed by the sequence of intracellular events leading to growth. In contrast, occupation of low affinity receptors (the only ones present in the GI smooth muscle) does not lead to cell proliferation. This difference therefore explains the different adaptive response of the pancreas and the stomach to chronic CCK administration. Furthermore, different affinity states of CCK₁-receptors may mediate different functions of the digestive tract.

Effects of cyclic stretch on the molecular regulation of myocardin in rat aortic vascular smooth muscle cells

Background

The expression of myocardin, a cardiac-restricted gene, increases during environmental stress. How mechanical stretch affects the regulation of myocardin in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) is not fully understood. We identify the mechanisms and pathways through which mechanical stretch induces myocardin expression in VSMCs.

Results

Rat VSMCs grown on a flexible membrane base were stretched to 20% of maximum elongation, at 60 cycles per min. An in vivo model of aorta-caval shunt in adult rats was also used to investigate myocardin expression. Cyclic stretch significantly increased myocardin and angiotensin II (AngII) expression after 18 and 6 h of stretch. Addition of extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERK) pathway inhibitor (PD98059), ERK small interfering RNA (siRNA), and AngII receptor blocker (ARB; losartan) before stretch inhibited the expression of myocardin protein. Gel shift assay showed that myocardin-DNA binding activity increased after stretch. PD98059, ERK siRNA and ARB abolished the binding activity induced by stretch. Stretch increased while myocardin-mutant plasmid, PD98059, and ARB abolished the promoter activity. Protein synthesis by measuring [³H]proline incorporation into the cells increased after cyclic stretch, which represented hypertrophic change of VSMCs. An in vivo model of aorta-caval shunt also demonstrated increased myocardin protein expression in the aorta. Confocal microscopy showed increased VSMC size 24 h after cyclic stretch and VSMC hypertrophy after creation of aorta-caval shunt for 3 days.

Conclusions

Cyclic stretch enhanced myocardin expression mediated by AngII through the ERK pathway in cultured rat VSMCs. These findings suggest that myocardin plays a role in stretch-induced VSMC hypertrophy.
