The direct action of atriopeptin on the cell regulation mechanism of the smooth muscle in isolated segments of the portal vein, aorta, pancreatic and cerebral arteries have been studied. It was found that atriopeptin induce the direct relaxation of the smooth muscle in the main vessels only (aorta, portal vein). In the cerebral and pancreatic arteries atriopeptin stops norepinephrine-induced contractions. The data obtained show that the action of the atriopeptin is mediated by Na+-K+ pump activation of smooth muscle cells and restricts vasoconstriction of catecholamine effect. 相似文献

On the basis of the results of rheovasography of the thigh region, the vascular tone was assessed using pulse transit time in subjects regularly playing sports and nonathletes with initial stages of hypertension. An increased rigidity of the vascular wall was observed in subjects with an increased blood pressure. In our opinion, vascular endothelial dysfunction is the main cause of vascular rigidity, and regular dynamic training can improve the endothelium-dependent vascular relaxation. 相似文献

In stimulation of the rat nerve with a modulated sine pattern, an increase in the modulating frequency from 0.03 to 0.15 Hz diminished the latency between the stimulating signals and changes in the vessel resistance as well as the amplitude of the flow oscillations, but did not affect tonic contractions of the vessel. A reduction of transmural pressure from 80 to 40 mm Hg increased both the tonic and the phasic components of the vessel contraction. Following the endothelium removal no change in the response latency occurred. The data obtained suggest that, during a rhythmic neurogenic influence, the vascular endothelium may work as an "amplifier" of the vessel's phasic contractions. 相似文献

Acute stress concomitant to the experimental myocardial infarction has induced endothelial hyperactivation of the rat aorta exhibited in an increase of inhibition of norepinephrine-induced contractions of vascular smooth muscle, enhanced endothelium-dependent relaxation correlating with a fall of systemic blood pressure. Preliminary adaptation of rats to intermittent hypobaric hypoxia greatly prevented the stress-induced endothelial hyperactivation and beneficially affected the postinfarction time course of blood pressure. 相似文献

Noradrenaline-preactivated vascular smooth muscles (VSM) of the rat thoracic aorta showed two-phase reactions in response to decreased oxygenation: significant relaxation was preceded by transient constriction. When the endothelium was removed only VSM relaxation phase was retained, with no constriction observed. The data obtained suggest an endothelium-dependent nature of VSM constriction reaction to hypoxia, in contrast to endothelium-independent VSM relaxation. Intracellular calcium is also assumed to play an essential role in the formation of endothelium-dependent constriction VSM reaction to hypoxia. 相似文献

Contractile responses to serotonin were examined in the longitudinal portal vein to determine whether such responses were mediated by the interaction of serotonin with 5HT1 receptors (those that preferentially bind [3H]serotonin) or 5HT2 receptors (those that preferentially bind [3H]spiperone). Using eight serotonin receptor antagonists (spiperone, metergoline, LY53857, ketanserin, trazodone, benzoctamine, 1-(1-naphthyl)piperazine, and 1-meta-methoxyphenylpiperazine), we found a significant correlation between the affinity for serotonin receptors in the rat portal vein and the ability to bind to 5HT2, but no 5HT1 receptors in rat frontal cortical membranes. Thus, the receptors mediating vascular contraction to serotonin in the rat portal vein were similar to those receptors defined in other vascular beds from the rat (aorta, jugular vein, and caudal artery). Furthermore, contraction resulting from the cumulative addition of serotonin in the rat portal vein was associated with desensitization (higher ED50 value) relative to contractions produced by the non-cumulative addition of serotonin. Affinities of serotonin receptor antagonists were also lower when determined by antagonism of cumulative serotonin concentration-response curves compared to affinities obtained by antagonism of non-cumulative concentration-response curves. Thus, 5HT2 receptor affinities of antagonists in the rat portal vein are best determined by the shift of non-cumulative responses to serotonin. 相似文献

Estrogens have been postulated to play an important role in modulation of vascular responses to endogenous reactive substances. The effects of chronic in vivo treatment with 17ß-estradiol on relaxant responses to acetylcholine were investigated in the rat aorta isolated from prepubertal female rats. The selectivity of effects of 17ß-estradiol on acetylcholine-induced relaxation was evaluated using histamine, another endothelium-dependent relaxant in the rat aorta. 17ß-Estradiol significantly enhanced endothelium-dependent relaxation induced by acetylcholine, but did not alter the vascular responses to acetylcholine in endothelium-denuded aortic rings isolated from prepubertal female rats. In contrast, 17ß-estradiol did not change endothelium-dependent relaxation induced by histamine in endothelium-intact aortic rings. The results of the present study demostrate that 17ß-estradiol selectively enhanced acetylcholine-induced endothelium-dependent relaxation in the rat aorta. 相似文献

We previously demonstrated that uridine adenosine tetraphosphate (Up4A) induces potent and partially endothelium-dependent relaxation in the healthy porcine coronary microvasculature. We subsequently showed that Up4A-induced porcine coronary relaxation was impaired via downregulation of P1 receptors after myocardial infarction. In view of the deleterious effect of metabolic derangement on vascular function, we hypothesized that the coronary vasodilator response to Up4A is impaired in metabolic derangement, and that the involvement of purinergic receptor subtypes and endothelium-derived vasoactive factors (EDVFs) is altered. Coronary small arteries, dissected from the apex of healthy swine and swine 6 months after induction of diabetes with streptozotocin and fed a high-fat diet, were mounted on wire myographs. Up4A (10?9–10?5 M)-induced coronary relaxation was maintained in swine with metabolic derangement compared to normal swine, despite impaired endothelium-dependent relaxation to bradykinin and despite blunted P2X7 receptor and NO-mediated vasodilator influences of Up4A. Moreover, a thromboxane-mediated vasoconstrictor influence was unmasked. In contrast, an increased Up4A-mediated vasodilator influence via P2Y1 receptors was observed, while, in response to Up4A, cytochrome P450 2C9 switched from producing vasoconstrictor to vasodilator metabolites in swine with metabolic derangement. Coronary vascular expression of A2A and P2X7 receptors as well as eNOS, as assessed with real-time PCR, was reduced in swine with metabolic derangement. In conclusion, although the overall coronary vasodilator response to Up4A was maintained in swine with metabolic derangement, the involvement of purinergic receptor subtypes and EDVF was markedly altered, revealing compensatory mechanisms among signaling pathways in Up4A-mediated coronary vasomotor influence in the early phase of metabolic derangement. Future studies are warranted to investigate the effects of severe metabolic derangement on coronary responses to Up4A. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to analyze the contribution of nitric oxide, prostacyclin and endothelium-dependent hyperpolarizing factor to endothelium-dependent vasodilation induced by acetylcholine in rat aorta from control and ouabain-induced hypertensive rats. Preincubation with the nitric oxide synthase inhibitor N-omega-nitro-l-arginine methyl esther (L-NAME) inhibited the vasodilator response to acetylcholine in segments from both groups but to a greater extent in segments from ouabain-treated rats. Basal and acetylcholine-induced nitric oxide release were higher in segments from ouabain-treated rats. Preincubation with the prostacyclin synthesis inhibitor tranylcypromine or with the cyclooxygenase inhibitor indomethacin inhibited the vasodilator response to acetylcholine in aortic segments from both groups. The Ca2+-dependent potassium channel blocker charybdotoxin inhibited the vasodilator response to acetylcholine only in segments from control rats. These results indicate that hypertension induced by chronic ouabain treatment is accompanied by increased endothelial nitric oxide participation and impaired endothelium-dependent hyperpolarizing factor contribution in acetylcholine-induced relaxation. These effects might explain the lack of effect of ouabain treatment on acetylcholine responses in rat aorta. 相似文献

The blocker of two-pore channels trans-NED19 and hydrogen peroxide were found to inhibit histamine-induced relaxation of rat aorta. The degree of inhibition depended on histamine concentration. The relaxation in response to 1 µM histamine of rat aorta preconstricted with 30 mM KCl, serotonin, or endothelin-1, was completely abolished by 30 µM trans-NED19. On the other hand, trans-NED19 decreased the relaxation of the aorta in the presence of 10 µM histamine only by 2.1to 2.4-fold, and there was almost no inhibition by trans-NED19 of the relaxation induced by 100 µM histamine. Relaxation of preconstricted with serotonin aorta in response to 10 and 100 µM histamine was reduced by hydrogen peroxide (200 µM) by 10and 2.5-fold, respectively. Suppression of aorta relaxation by trans-NED19 and H2O2 correlated with their inhibitory effect on the histamine-induced increase in the cytoplasmic free calcium concentration in human umbilical vein endothelial cells. With the use of a fluorescent probe LysoTracker, the cis-NED19 binding sites were demonstrated to be localized in endolysosomes of the endothelial cells. These data indicate that twopore calcium channels participate in the histamine-induced endothelium-dependent relaxation of rat aorta. Furthermore, their functional role is exhibited much more clearly at low histamine concentrations. We suggest that hydrogen peroxide evokes depletion of intracellular calcium depots thereby suppressing the response to histamine. 相似文献

The effect of experimental myocardial infarction on endothelium-dependent relaxation was studied on isolated rat aorta and compared with the dynamics of arterial pressure (AP). It was shown that the endothelium-dependent relaxation of aorta was increased 1.8 times 3 h following the myocardial infarction. Simultaneously the drop in AP which had begun immediately following the experimental infarction became maximal. In 24 h both the indices were restored practically to the initial level. There was a significant negative correlation between the extent of endothelium-dependent relaxation and AP. It was suggested that the increase in endothelium-dependent relaxation could influence vascular tone, the drop in AP, and, finally, the development of cardiogenic shock in myocardial infarction in man. 相似文献

Amongst its wide repertoire of functions, the vascular endothelium plays a pivotal role in the regulation of vascular smooth muscle tone and ultimately tissue perfusion. In healthy vessels, the endothelium exerts a vasodilator influence on the underlying smooth muscle cells. In diabetes mellitus, endothelium-dependent vasodilation is impaired in various vascular beds and may contribute to the increased vascular tone and reduced tissue perfusion, which are features of this disease. There are regional variations in the extent of endothelial vasodilator dysfunction in diabetes, and the basis for this variation has yet to be resolved. The complement of vasodilators involved in endothelium-dependent relaxation varies in different vascular beds. In larger arteries and conduit vessels, the role of nitric oxide (NO) has been the focus of human and animal studies on diabetes. Small arteries and arterioles are important in the local regulation of tissue perfusion, and in many of these, another endothelial vasodilator, endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor (EDHF), plays an increasingly prominent role in overall endothelium-dependent relaxation. Surprisingly few studies have explored the influence of diabetes on EDHF; however, there is emerging evidence from a diverse range of vascular beds that the actions of EDHF are seriously compromised in diabetes. Vascular disease remains the leading cause of morbidity and mortality associated with diabetes mellitus. A better understanding of the regional differences and mechanisms involved in endothelial function and dysfunction in small arteries may reveal new strategies to aid in the prevention and/or therapeutic management of the vascular complications of diabetes mellitus. 相似文献

In experiments on isolated segments of the rat femoral artery, we demonstrated that a donor of nitric oxide, nitroglycerine
(NG), suppresses KCl-and phenylephrine-induced contractions of smooth muscles (SMs) of the vascular wall in a dose-dependent
manner. The relaxing effect of NG on SMs is based on several mechanisms. In a series of experiments on intact preparations,
we found that potassium channels of two types, Ca-dependent big-conductance and inward rectifying channels, are involved in
the relaxing effect of NG. Experiments on skinned preparations showed that interaction between the contractile apparatus of
SM cells and calcium ions is disturbed under the action of NG.

The endothelium is the main target in the vascular wall for ionizing radiation; an irradiation-induced impairment leads to the loss of endothelium-dependent vasodilation. Recent studies showed that gamma irradiation causes selective impairment of nitric oxide (NO)-mediated vasodilation, but little is known about the underlying mechanisms. The goal of our study was to identify mechanisms underlying the impairment of NO-mediated endothelium-dependent vasodilation after whole-body irradiation with a cobalt60 source. We compared vasodilation and NO release induced by acetylcholine (ACh), as well as relaxations induced by exogenous NO, in the thoracic aorta from healthy and irradiated rabbits. It was shown that despite the loss of relaxation the apparent release of NO induced by ACh and detected by chemiluminescence assay remained unaltered in irradiated tissue, as compared with that of healthy rabbits. At the same time, it was evident that while in healthy vessels relaxation increased with increasing NO concentration;, this relationship was lost in irradiated vessels. Endothelium-denuded aortic smooth muscles from irradiated rabbits retained the same sensitivity to NO gas solution as healthy denuded vessels. When non-denuded vascular tissues were used, irradiated aortas demonstrated an increased sensitivity, as compared with non-irradiated vascular tissue. α-Tocopherol acetate and phosphatidylcholine liposomes, when administered to rabbits 1 h after irradiation, effectively restored the NO-mediated endothelium-dependent relaxation and normalized the relationship between NO release and relaxation and also the sensitivity of the vessels to inhibition by Nω-nitro-L-arginine (L-NA). Taken together, these data allow us to hypothesize that inhibition of an EDRF/NO-dependent component of vascular relaxation in irradiated rabbits may be due to at least two possible reasons: (i) intensified inactivation of endothelium-derived NO by oxygen free radicals, and (ii) abnormalities in diffusion of NO in the irradiated endothelium and subendothelial layer. Both these effects may lead to a decrease in the bioavailability of NO. 相似文献

Voltage-gated Kv7 channels are inhibited by agonists of Gq-protein-coupled receptors, such as histamine. Recent works have provided evidence that inhibition of vascular Kv7 channels may trigger vessel contractions. In this study, we investigated how Kv7 activity modulates the histamine-induced contractions in “healthy” and metabolic syndrome (MetS) pig right coronary arteries (CAs). We performed isometric tension and immunohistochemical studies with domestic, lean Ossabaw, and MetS Ossabaw pig CAs. We found that neither the Kv7.2/Kv7.4/Kv7.5 activator ML213 nor the general Kv7 inhibitor XE991 altered the tension of CA rings under preload, indicating that vascular Kv7 channels are likely inactive in the preloaded rings. Conversely, ML213 potently dilated histamine-pre-contracted CAs, suggesting that Kv7 channels are activated during histamine applications and yet partially inhibited by histamine. Immunohistochemistry analysis revealed strong Kv7.4 immunostaining in the medial and intimal layers of the CA wall, whereas Kv7.5 immunostaining intensity was strong in the intimal but weak in the medial layers. The medial Kv7 immunostaining was significantly weaker in MetS Ossabaw CAs as compared to lean Ossabaw or domestic CAs. Consistently, histamine-pre-contracted MetS Ossabaw CAs exhibited attenuated ML213-dependent dilations. In domestic pig CAs, where medial Kv7 immunostaining intensity was stronger, histamine-induced contractions spontaneously decayed to ~31% of the peak amplitude within 4 minutes. Oppositely, in Ossabaw CAs, where Kv7 immunostaining intensity was weaker, the histamine-induced contractions were more sustained. XE991 pretreatment significantly slowed the decay rate of histamine-induced contractions in domestic CAs, supporting the hypothesis that increased Kv7 activity correlates with a faster rate of histamine-induced contraction decay. Alternatively, XE991 significantly decreased the amplitude of bradykinin-dependent dilations in pre-contracted CAs. We propose that in CAs, a decreased expression or a loss of function of Kv7 channels may lead to sustained histamine-induced contractions and reduced endothelium-dependent relaxation, both risk factors for coronary spasm. 相似文献

This study examines the effects of Candida albicans on acethylcholine-induced, endothelium-dependent relaxation of thoracic aorta of rabbits, precontracted by phenylephrine (10(-7) M). Isolated vessel rings were incubated with C. albicans, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, or their mannans, and endothelium-dependent relaxation was measured by the induction of acethylcholine. Endothelium-dependent relaxation remained unaffected after 3 hours by either C. albicans or S. cerevisiae, or their mannans. After 24 hours, however, incubation with C. albicans had completely abolished relaxation, whereas relaxation was decreased by mannan of C. albicans and continued unaffected by S. cerevisiae. In contrast, no change was registered with a 24 hours incubation of C. Albicans in a sodium nitroprusside-induced, endothelium-independent, vascular smooth muscle relaxation. Microscopical investigation of the morphological structure of vessel walls revealed penetration of C. albicans on the intimal surface after 3 hours incubation and infiltration of the yeast through the vessel wall after 24 hours. No changes in vessel morphology occurred after 3 or 24 hours with S. cerevisiae or the mannan of C. albicans. These results show the ability of C. albicans to inhibit endothelium-dependent, but not endothelium-independent, relaxation of vascular smooth muscle and may have important implications for functional damage to endothelial cells and the regulation of vessel tone and blood flow. 相似文献

This study investigated how vasoconstriction (tone), wall tension, smooth muscle activation, and vascular wall deformation influence resistance artery vasodilator reactivity. Resistance arteries, from two different regional circulations (splanchnic, uterine) and from pregnant and non-pregnant rats, were cannulated and pressurized, or mounted on a wire myograph under isometric conditions prior to being exposed to both endothelium-dependent (acetylcholine, ACh) and -independent (sodium nitroprusside, SNP) vasodilator agonists. A consistent pattern of reduced vasodilator sensitivity was noted as a function of extent of preconstriction for both agonists noted in pressurized arteries. A similar pattern regarding activation was noted in wire-mounted arteries in response to SNP but not ACh. Wall tension proved to be a major determinant of vascular smooth muscle vasodilator reactivity and its normalization reversed this pattern, as more constricted vessels were more sensitive to ACh relaxation without any change in SNP sensitivity, suggesting that endothelial deformation secondary to vasoconstriction augments its vasodilator output. To our knowledge, this is the first study to dissect out the complex interplay between biophysical forces impinging on VSM (pressure, wall tension), the ambient level of tone (vasoconstriction, smooth muscle cell activation), and consequences of cellular (particularly endothelial) deformation secondary to constriction in determining resistance artery vasodilatory reactivity. 相似文献

Irradiation of the rat portal vein's fragments with the He-Ne laser for 3, 5 and 10 minutes reduced the fragments tone by half. Frequency of phasic and tonic contractions did not change, their amplitude, however, increased by neatly 40% as compared with the initial level. The NO synthase blocker N-nitro-L-arginine administered prior to the irradiation had no effect on the above parameters. The data obtained suggest that the decrease of the vessel tone is due to production of the EDRF and cGMP. The increase in the amplitude of phasic and tonic contractions of the vein's smooth muscle cells is associated with an increased Ca++ entry in each contraction cycle. 相似文献

The effects of piretanide upon mechanical activity and pharmacological reactivity of vascular and myocardial tissues from normotensive rats were investigated. Magnitude of phasic contractions of isolated rat portal vein was diminished by the drug in a dose-related manner; contractile depression induced by piretanide (10(-4)M) was less in the presence of insulin (0.1 U/mL), glucose (22 mM) or pyruvate (5 mM). Responses to KCl (90 mM), or norepinephrine (2.5 X 10(-5)M) were also reduced. Contractile activity of atria and ventricle strips was diminished only when piretanide reached 10(-4)M. Results support direct actions of piretanide upon cardiac and vascular tissues. Possible mechanisms of action are discussed. 相似文献

Earlier we demonstrated that micellar solutions of LPC caused endothelium-dependent relaxation of rabbit thoracic aorta and bovine intrapulmonary artery and vein through a cyclic GMP-dependent mechanism. The availability of LPC for vasorelaxation depends on its production by deacylation of PC by PLA2. We assessed the possible activation of PLA2 by commonly used vasorelaxants such as acetylcholine, bradykinin, calcium ionophore A23187 and thrombin and vasoconstrictors like histamine and phenylephrine in the presence of indomethacin in a model system where 14C PC was incorporated into bovine intrapulmonary arterial segments. Taking the ratio of 14C PC:LPC formed by exogenous PLA2 as an index of deacylation, we found that while all the agents relaxed the strips in an endothelium-dependent manner, only thrombin caused relaxation followed by an increase in 14C LPC and a concomittant decrease in 14C PC indicating activation of PLA2. Our data show that PC/PLA2 system can be activated to generate LPC for vascular relaxation under specific physiological conditions. This model system can be used to monitor PLA2 activity and LPC production to compensate flow and pressure induced changes in arteries. 相似文献
