Phosphatidylinositol metabolism and 45Ca2+ efflux were examined in a vascular smooth muscle cell line (A7r5). [Arg8]Vasopressin stimulated the rapid formation (measurable at 1 sec) of inositol phosphates in a concentration-dependent manner. The time course for formation of inositol phosphates was similar to that for 45Ca2+ efflux from preloaded cells. The efflux of 45Ca2+ in response to [Arg8]vasopressin could be inhibited by a vasopressin antagonist. This supports the hypothesis that inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate plays a role in vasopressin stimulated calcium mobilisation from an intracellular source in cultured vascular smooth muscle cells. 相似文献

Activation of calcium mobilization and calcium influx by alpha 1-adrenergic receptors in a smooth muscle cell line 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Alpha 1-adrenergic receptor (alpha 1R) mediated increases in the cytosolic levels of free Ca+2 and the inositol phosphates were measured in a smooth muscle cell line, DDT1. Norepinephrine (NE) stimulated a rapid increase in cytosolic Ca+2 by two distinct components: 1) release of Ca+2 from intracellular sites (mobilization), and 2) influx of extracellular Ca+2. The mobilization component was not affected by removal of extracellular Ca+2 or addition of La+3 or Co+2 to the buffer. The influx component was abolished by EGTA, La+3, or Co+2, but was not affected by the voltage-operated Ca+2 channel blockers diltiazem or nifedipine. Depolarization of DDT1 cells with 100 mM KCl or with gramicidin did not induce Ca+2 influx. NE also increased inositol trisphosphate to 78% over basal levels within 1 minute. These results suggest that alpha 1R on DDT1 cells are coupled to both the mobilization of intracellular Ca+2 and to receptor-operated Ca+2 channels in the plasma membrane, and that polyphosphoinositide hydrolysis may play a role in these phenomena. 相似文献

The pharmacological properties of voltage sensitive calcium channels (VSCC) were examined in a rat aortic smooth muscle cell line (A10). The inorganic VSCC blockers Co2+ and Cd2+ blocked 45Ca2+ uptake into these cells in both 5 mM K+ and 50 mM K+ (depolarizing) conditions. The organic VSCC antagonists nitrendipine, nimodipine, D-600 and diltiazem also blocked 45Ca2+ uptake at low concentrations. The relative potencies of blockade were similar to those found in intact vascular smooth muscle. The VSCC "agonist" BAY K8644 enhanced 45Ca2+ uptake and this effect could be reversed by nitrendipine. These results indicate that A10 cells possess VSCC and that these VSCC behave similarly to those in authentic smooth muscle. 相似文献

Short-term desensitization of phosphatidylinositol turnover via muscarinic acetylcholine receptors and histamine H1-receptors in smooth muscle 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Smooth muscle of guinea-pig taenia caecum was desensitized by treatment with 10(-4)M carbachol or 10(-4)M histamine for 30 min in Ca-free solution containing 2mM EGTA. Phosphatidylinositol turnover stimulated by carbachol was not reduced by desensitization with either carbachol or histamine, while the turnover stimulated by histamine was reduced by desensitization with histamine, but not with carbachol. These results are consistent with our previous report (1) that heterologous desensitization induced by carbachol occurs at intracellular Ca stores and homologous desensitization by histamine occurs at H1 receptors. 相似文献

Association of neurotensin to its receptor in HT29 cells increases the intracellular concentration of inositol phosphates. A rapid (20–30 s), transient stimulation of inositol trisphosphate (275% of the basal level) and inositol bisphosphate (420%) is first observed, followed by a slower, stable increase in inositol monophosphate (170%). Half-maximal stimulation of the three inositol phosphates was obtained with 50–100 nM neurotensin. These results indicate that neurotensin is able to regulate intracellular Ca2+ levels in HT29 cells by using inositol trisphosphate as a second messenger. 相似文献

Ca2+ entry under resting conditions may be important for contraction of vascular smooth muscle, but little is known about the mechanisms involved. Ca2+ leakage was studied in the A7r5 smooth muscle-derived cell line by patch-clamp techniques. Two channels that could mediate calcium influx at resting membrane potentials were characterized. In 110 mM Ba2+, one channel had a slope conductance of 6.0 +/- 0.6 pS and an extrapolated reversal potential of +41 +/- 13 mV (mean +/- SD, n = 8). The current rectified strongly, with no detectable outward current, even at +90 mV. Channel gating was voltage independent. A second type of channel had a linear current-voltage relationship, a slope conductance of 17.0 +/- 3.2 pS, and a reversal potential of +7 +/- 4 mV (n = 9). The open probability increased e-fold per 44 +/- 10 mV depolarization (n = 5). Both channels were also observed in 110 mM Ca2+. Noise analysis of whole-cell currents indicates that approximately 100 6-pS channels and 30 17-pS channels are open per cell. These 6-pS and 17-pS channels may contribute to resting calcium entry in vascular smooth muscle cells. 相似文献

The circadian system in mammals is a hierarchy of oscillators throughout the organism that are coordinated by the circadian clock in the hypothalamic suprachiasmatic nucleus. Peripheral clocks act to integrate time-of-day information from neural or hormonal signals, regulating gene expression, and, subsequently, organ physiology. However, the mechanisms by which the central clock communicates with peripheral oscillators are not understood and are likely tissue specific. In this study, we establish a mouse vascular cell model suitable for investigations of these mechanisms at a molecular level. Using the immortalized vascular smooth muscle cell line Movas-1, we determined that these cells express the circadian clock machinery with robust rhythms in mRNA expression over a 36-h period after serum shock synchronization. Furthermore, norepinephrine and forskolin were able to synchronize circadian rhythms in bmal1. With synchronization, we observed cycling of specific genes, including the tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 1 and 3 (timp1, timp3), collagen 3a1 (col3a1), transgelin 1 (sm22alpha), and calponin 1 (cnn1). Diurnal expression of these genes was also found in vivo in mouse aortic tissue, using microarray and real-time RT-PCR analysis. Both of these revealed ultradian rhythms in genes similar to the cycling observed in Movas-1 in vitro. These findings highlight the cyclical nature of structurally important genes in the vasculature that is similar both in vivo and in vitro. This study establishes the Movas-1 cells as a novel cell model from which to further investigate the molecular mechanisms of clock regulation in the vasculature. 相似文献

In this study we examined the expression of RyR subtypes and the role of RyRs in neurotransmitter- and hypoxia-induced Ca2+ release and contraction in pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMCs). Under perforated patch clamp conditions, maximal activation of RyRs with caffeine or inositol triphosphate receptors (IP3Rs) with noradrenaline induced equivalent increases in [Ca2+]i and Ca2+-activated Cl- currents in freshly isolated rat PASMCs. Following maximal IP3-induced Ca2+ release, neither caffeine nor chloro-m-cresol induced a response, whereas prior application of caffeine or chloro-m-cresol blocked IP3-induced Ca2+ release. In cultured human PASMCs, which lack functional expression of RyRs, caffeine failed to affect ATP-induced increases in [Ca2+]i in the presence and absence of extracellular Ca2+. The RyR antagonists ruthenium red, ryanodine, tetracaine, and dantrolene greatly inhibited submaximal noradrenaline- and hypoxia-induced Ca2+ release and contraction in freshly isolated rat PASMCs, but did not affect ATP-induced Ca2+ release in cultured human PASMCs. Real-time quantitative RT-PCR and immunofluorescence staining indicated similar expression of all three RyR subtypes (RyR1, RyR2, and RyR3) in freshly isolated rat PASMCs. In freshly isolated PASMCs from RyR3 knockout (RyR3-/-) mice, hypoxia-induced, but not submaximal noradrenaline-induced, Ca2+ release and contraction were significantly reduced. Ruthenium red and tetracaine can further inhibit hypoxic increase in [Ca2+]i in RyR3-/- mouse PASMCs. Collectively, our data suggest that (a) RyRs play an important role in submaximal noradrenaline- and hypoxia-induced Ca2+ release and contraction; (b) all three subtype RyRs are expressed; and (c) RyR3 gene knockout significantly inhibits hypoxia-, but not submaximal noradrenaline-induced Ca2+ and contractile responses in PASMCs. 相似文献

Vascular smooth muscle cell polyploidization occurs during normal development and is enhanced under physiologic stress, but the mechanism of this cell cycle has not been explored. We show via time-lapse video imaging and immunofluorescence analyses that primary vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) undergo an endomitotic-type cell cycle, including a normal progression through part of mitosis. Mononuclear polyploid cells are generated by defects in sister chromatid separation and/or segregation, and cellular binucleation occurs by reversal of cytokinesis. To obtain further leads to regulators involved, we examined the chromosomal passenger proteins, Aurora B, inner centromere protein and Survivin, and concluded that Aurora B and inner centromere protein are normally colocalized in centromeres, the midzone, and the midbody during mitosis. Survivin, however, is dim and diffused; it does not colocalize with either Aurora B or inner centromere protein in VSMC, which could account for defects in sister chromatid separation and/or segregation and reversal of cytokinesis. In accordance with the reported dependency of Aurora B activity on Survivin, the Aurora B substrate, vimentin, is not phosphorylated during cytokinesis. Finally, the data show that ectopically expressed Survivin inhibits polyploidization in vascular smooth muscle cells. Hence, aberrant chromosome passenger protein activity and endomitosis are associated with VSMC polyploidization. 相似文献

1. The metabolism of phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidate was investigated in fragments of longitudinal smooth muscle from guinea-pig ileum incubated with cholinergic and anticholinergic drugs. 2. Incorporation of Pi into these lipids was enhanced by acetylcholine and carbamoylcholine. 3. The receptor responsible for triggering this response was of the muscarinic type, since (a) the response was also produced by the muscarinic agonists acetyl-beta-methylcholine, carbamoyl-beta-methylcholine and pilocarpine, and (b) the response was prevented by atropine and prophylbenzilylcholine mustard, but not by tubocurarine. 4. Increased phosphatidylinositol labellin was clearly observed within 5 min in tissue treated with a high concentration of carbamoylcholine. 5. Halfmaximal stimulation of phosphatidylinositol labelling occurred at approx. 10 muM-muM-carbamoylcholine. 6. Incubation of muscle fragments with carbamoylcholine provoked a decrease in phosphatidylinositol concentration, as would be expected if phosphatidyl-inositol breakdown is the reaction controlled by agonists. 7. This information all appears consistent with the proposal that phosphatidylinositol breakdown may be a reaction intrinsic to the mechanisms of muscarinic cholinergic receptor systems. 相似文献

The blood platelet appears to play an important role in the pathogenesis of the atherosclerotic plaque. Using a platelet specific antigen, platelet factor 4 (PF4), we have demonstrated that PF4 released from platelets enters the vessel wall. Smooth muscle cell (s.m.c.) proliferation in vivo was examined by using a new technique for measuring [3H]thymidine incorporation. With this technique, we have shown that a remote vascular injury can cause s.m.c. proliferation, presumably mediated by a humoral agent. Endothelial dysfunction, in turn, may be caused by a sustained, mild hypercholesterolaemia. This permeability dysfunction may provide circulating s.m.c. mitogens with access to the vessel, wall, thus allowing s.m.c. proliferation in areas of non-desquamated endothelium. These experiments from the basis for a modification of the hypothesis implicating platelets in atherogenesis. 相似文献

A cell line originating from the fetal rat aorta has been studied with respect to 45Ca2+ uptake. Kinetic experiments showed an initial rapid uptake followed by a slow linear phase; both the initial rate and the maximum uptake were increased in the presence of 55 mM potassium chloride. The calcium channel antagonists, darodipine (PY 108-068) and verapamil, inhibited both the basal and the potassium chloride stimulated uptake. Neither tetrodotoxin nor furosemide affected either basal or depolarisation induced 45Ca2+ uptake. Blockade of the Na+/K+ ATPase by ouabain and of the Ca2+ ATPase by vanadate caused a net increase in cellular 45Ca2+ accumulation. 相似文献

Induction of c-fos protein by activation of vasopressin receptors in smooth muscle cells 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Stimulation of vasopressin (V1) receptors of rat aortic smooth muscle cells (A-10, ATCC CRL 1476) results in the hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) to inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) and diacylglycerol (DAG) with the mobilization of intracellular calcium. When A-10 cells are exposed to arginine vasopressin (AVP), there is an increase in the level of c-fos oncoprotein. The extent of induction of c-fos oncoprotein depends on both the time of exposure of the cells to AVP, reaching a maximum at 60 min after which there is a slow decline, and the concentration of AVP used, with an approximate EC50 of 1 nM which corresponds well with the Kd of vasopressin binding to these receptors. This vasopressin-mediated increase in c-fos protein level is inhibited by a V1/V2 antagonist (SKF 101498) suggesting that this is a receptor-mediated event. In addition dDAVP, a V2 selective agonist, is much less effective than AVP in inducing c-fos protein suggesting that AVP mediates its effect via V1 receptors. Desensitization of vasopressin receptors by prolonged exposure to AVP resulted in no additional induction of c-fos protein level in response to second challenge of AVP. In addition to AVP, phorbol dibutyrate (PDBu), an activator of protein kinase C (PKC), also stimulates the accumulation of c-fos protein although to a lesser extent than AVP. The above data suggest that c-fos protein levels in smooth muscle cells are regulated by AVP and the hormonal effect may be mediated through PI turnover and DAG, IP3 and Ca2+ signals. 相似文献

Characterization of functional histamine H1 receptors on a cultured smooth muscle cell line 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Cultured cells of the smooth muscle line DDT1MF-2, which was derived from a hamster vas deferens tumor, expressed histamine H1-type receptors and responded biochemically and functionally to H1-specific stimulation. The H1-receptor antagonist [3H]-pyrilamine bound specifically to 9.7 x 10(6) sites/DDT1MF-2 cell with a dissociation constant (Kd) of 219 nM. The addition of histamine to suspensions of fura-2-loaded DDT1MF-2 cells elicited a rapid, transient, and stimulus concentration-dependent increase in the intracellular concentration of Ca2+ with an EC50 of 3 x 10(-5) M, which demonstrated H1 receptor specificity. Moreover, in order to evaluate in vitro contractile response of individual DDT1MF-2 cells, the degree of intracellular actin polymerization was quantified by a DNase inhibition assay. The percentage of nonpolymerized or G-actin in DDT1MF-2 cells was reduced in a histamine concentration-dependent manner with an EC50 of 1 x 10(-5) M and H1 receptor specificity. Histamine-induced actin polymerization was accompanied by changes in cell shape that were consistent with cellular contraction, as assessed by flow cytometry. The H1-type receptors of cultured DDT1MF-2 cells thus couple histamine stimulation to a variety of functional responses of smooth muscle cells. 相似文献

1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D receptors in an established bone cell line. Correlation with biochemical responses 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
M R Walters D M Rosen A W Norman R A Luben 《The Journal of biological chemistry》1982,257(13):7481-7484
A stable cell line derived from mouse bone (cell line MMB-1) has been used for studies of the cellular receptor for 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 in osteoblasts. Previous studies have demonstrated that collagen synthesis in the MMB-1 cell line is specifically inhibited by 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 as well as by other bone-regulating hormones. Incubation of cell homogenates with [3H]1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 indicated the presence of a specific receptor which was located primarily in the chromatin fraction. Optimum conditions for the receptor assay required the inclusion of 500 kallikrein-inactivating units of Trasylol/ml and 10 mM NaMoO4. Under these conditions the receptors were stable for 2 h at 23 degrees C and for 24 h at 4 degrees C. Cellular content of receptors was dependent upon the state of confluency of the cells: fully confluent cells contained minimal concentrations of receptors. In cultures of 70-80% confluency, the 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 receptors demonstrated linear Scatchard plots with Kd = 0.4 nM. Peak receptor activity was found at 3.7 S in linear sucrose gradient fractions of cell homogenates. The synthesis of collagen by MMB-1 cells was inhibited by 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 in direct proportion to the concentration of cellular receptors at varying levels of culture confluence. The data indicate that MMB-1 cells contain cytoplasmic/nuclear receptors for 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 which are similar to the receptors found in other target tissues for this hormone and suggest that these receptors are mediators of the effects of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 on collagen synthesis. 相似文献

Vascular smooth muscle in hypertension 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The cause of the elevated arterial pressure in most forms of hypertension is an increase in total peripheral resistance. This brief review is directed toward an assessment of recent investigations contributing information about the factors responsible for this increased vascular resistance. Structural abnormalities in the vasculature that characterize the hypertensive process are 1) changes in the vascular media, 2) rarefication of the resistance vessels, and 3) lesions of the intimal vascular surface. These abnormalities are mainly the result of an adaptive process and are secondary to the increase in wall stress and/or to pathological damage to cellular components in the vessel wall. Functional alterations in the vascular smooth muscle are described as changes in agonist-smooth muscle interaction or plasma membrane permeability. These types of changes appear to play a primary, initiating role in the elevation of vascular resistance of hypertension. These alterations are not the result of an increase in wall stress and they often precede the development of high blood pressure. The functional changes are initiated by abnormal function of neurogenic, humoral, and/or myogenic changes that alter vascular smooth muscle activity. 相似文献

The present study examines the signal transduction mechanism that is involved in the growth of vascular smooth muscle cells exposed to 4-hydroxynonenal (HNE) in vitro. This aldehyde component of oxidized low-density lipoprotein has been identified in atherosclerotic lesion. Exposure to HNE caused ERK, JNK, and p38 MAP kinase activation as well as the induction of c-fos and c-jun gene expression. AP-1 activity was also significantly induced by HNE treatment. These intracellular activities appear to be the mechanism of HNE-caused mitogenesis. Indeed, HNE induced vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation as determened by Alamar-Blue assay and stimulated DNA synthesis as determined by bromodeoxyuridine incorporation. These observations are consistent with a role of lipid peroxidation products in vascular smooth muscle cell growth in atherogenesis. 相似文献
