Exercise is well-known in improving vascular functions, but the underlying mechanism has not been totally understood. The aim of this study was to examine whether single exercise session acutely enhances insulin-induced and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1)-induced vasorelaxation. Twenty-four male Wistar rats at age of 12 weeks were randomly divided into two groups, control (n = 12) and exercise (n = 12) group. The exercise group ran on a treadmill at a speed of 18 m/min for 60 min. Immediately after exercise, insulin-induced and IGF-1-induced vasorelaxant responses were evaluated by the isometric tension of aortic rings in the organ baths. The roles of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) and nitric oxide synthase (NOS) in vasorelaxant responses were examined by treating selective inhibitors, such as wortmannin (an inhibitor of PI3K) and N(omega)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME, a NOS inhibitor). In addition, the vascular responses to sodium nitroprusside (SNP), a NO donor, were examined. We found that single exercise session significantly enhanced vasorelaxation mediated by insulin and IGF-1 in rat aortas (P < 0.01). Also, the exercise-enhanced vasorelaxation was abolished by wortmannin or L-NAME. There was no significant difference of SNP-induced vasorelaxation between control and exercise groups. These results indicate that single exercise session acutely enhances insulin-induced and IGF-1-induced vasorelaxation through the PI3K-NOS-dependent pathway. 相似文献

Improved vasorelaxant response is one of the beneficial effects of exercise training on vascular function. The mechanism for this response is, however, poorly understood. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of exercise training on insulin-induced and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1)-induced vasorelaxation. Fourteen 6-week-old male Wistar rats were randomly divided into sedentary control and exercise groups. For 12 weeks, the exercise group ran on a treadmill 60 min/day, 5 days/week. After exercise training, insulin-induced and IGF-1-induced vasorelaxant responses were evaluated by measuring the isometric tension of aortic rings. The vasorelaxant role of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) and nitric oxide synthase (NOS) was examined by applying inhibitors, such as wortmannin (an inhibitor of PI3K) and N(omega)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME, a NOS inhibitor). In addition, we examined the vascular response to the NO donor, sodium nitroprusside (SNP). We found that: (1) exercise training significantly enhanced both insulin-induced and IGF-1-induced vasorelaxation in rat aortas; (2) this vasorelaxant effect disappeared after the use of wortmannin or L-NAME; (3) there was no significant difference in SNP-induced vasorelaxation between control and exercise groups. Our findings indicate that exercise training enhances insulin-induced and IGF-1-induced vasorelaxant responses which are mediated through the PI3K-NOS-dependent pathway. 相似文献

The present study examined in vitro vasomotor function and expression of enzymes controlling nitric oxide (NO) bioavailability in thoracic aorta of adult male normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) and spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) that either remained sedentary (Sed) or performed 6 wk of moderate aerobic exercise training (Ex). Training efficacy was confirmed by elevated maximal activities of both citrate synthase (P = 0.0024) and beta-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase (P = 0.0073) in the white gastrocnemius skeletal muscle of Ex vs. Sed rats. Systolic blood pressure was elevated in SHR vs. WKY (P < 0.0001) but was not affected by Ex. Despite enhanced endothelium-dependent relaxation to 10(-8) M ACh in SHR vs. WKY (P = 0.0061), maximal endothelium-dependent relaxation to 10(-4) M ACh was blunted in Sed SHR (48 +/- 12%) vs. Sed WKY (84 +/- 6%, P = 0.0067). Maximal endothelium-dependent relaxation to 10(-4) M ACh was completely restored in Ex SHR (93 +/- 9%) vs. Sed SHR (P = 0.0011). N(omega)-nitro-l-arginine abolished endothelium-dependent relaxation in all groups (P = 0.0001) and caused equal vasocontraction to maximal ACh in Sed SHR and Ex SHR. Endothelium-independent relaxation to sodium nitroprusside was similar in all groups. Protein levels of endothelial NO synthase were higher in SHR vs. WKY (P = 0.0157) and in Ex vs. Sed (P = 0.0536). Protein levels of the prooxidant NAD(P)H oxidase subunit, gp91phox, were higher in SHR vs. WKY (P < 0.0001) and were diminished in Ex vs. Sed (P = 0.0557). Levels of the antioxidant SOD-1, -2, and catalase enzymes were lower in SHR vs. WKY (all P = 0.0005) but were not altered by Ex. Thus elevated gp91phox-dependent oxidative stress and reduced antioxidant capacity likely contributed to impaired endothelium-dependent vasorelaxation in Sed SHR. Furthermore, reduced gp91phox-dependent oxidative stress and enhanced endothelial NO synthase-derived NO likely contributed to restored endothelium-dependent vasorelaxation in Ex SHR. 相似文献

We tested the hypothesis that exercise training (Ex) attenuates hypercholesterolemia-induced impairment of endothelium-dependent relaxation (EDR) in male porcine coronary arteries [left anterior descending coronary arteries (LAD)] by increasing nitric oxide (NO) release [due to increased endothelial NO synthase (NOS) expression] and/or increased bioactivity of NO. Adult male pigs were fed a normal-fat (NF) or high-fat (HF) diet for 20-24 wk. Pigs were Ex or remained sedentary (Sed) for 16-20 wk, beginning after 4 wk on diet. Four groups of pigs were used: NF-Sed, NF-Ex, HF-Sed, and HF-Ex. HF enhanced LAD contractions induced by KCl, aggregating platelets (AP), and serotonin (5-HT). AP and 5-HT produced EDR after blockade of cyclooxygenase with indomethacin (Indo) and smooth-muscle 5-HT(2) receptors with ketanserin. HF impaired EDR induced by AP, 5-HT, and bradykinin. Results indicate a decreased contribution of NO to EDR in HF-Sed LADs, because the percentage of bradykinin-induced EDR inhibited by N(G)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester was 27% in NF-Sed and 34% in NF-Ex but only 17% in HF-Sed. Also, N(G)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester + Indo results indicate that release of an Indo-sensitive vasoconstrictor contributes to blunted EDR in HF-Sed LAD. Immunoblot and immunohistochemistry results indicate the following: 1) LAD endothelial NOS protein content was similar among groups; 2) HF decreased LAD superoxide dismutase (SOD) but increased caveolin-1 content; and 3) Ex increased SOD content of HF LADs. We conclude that HF impairs EDR by impairing the contribution of NO released from NOS (due to decreased SOD and increased caveolin-1 protein content) and by production of an Indo-sensitive vasoconstrictor. Ex preserves EDR in HF LADs by decreasing the production of the constrictor and increasing NO-release by NOS and/or NO bioactivity and bioavailability. 相似文献

Exercise training increases acetylcholine-induced pulmonary vasorelaxation in pigs with coronary occlusion. The present study tested the hypothesis that chronic exercise training enhances endothelium-mediated vasorelaxation in pulmonary arteries from normal pigs. Yucatan miniswine exercised for 16 wk on a treadmill (Ex); control pigs (Sed) remained in pens. Pulmonary artery rings (2- to 3-mm OD) were studied using standard isometric techniques. Contractile responses to 80 mM KCl and norepinephrine (NE) were determined. Vessels were constricted with levels of NE that resulted in half-maximal contraction to examine endothelium-dependent relaxation to ACh and endothelium-independent relaxation to sodium nitroprusside in the presence and absence of nitric oxide synthase inhibition, cyclooxygenase inhibition, and endothelial denudation. Arteries from Ex pigs developed increased contraction to 80 mM KCl, but the response to NE did not differ between groups. Endothelium-dependent and endothelium-independent responses did not differ between Sed and Ex in the presence or absence of pharmacological inhibitors or denudation. We conclude that chronic exercise training does not alter endothelium-dependent or endothelium-independent vasorelaxation responses of pulmonary arteries from normal pigs. 相似文献

Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-K) has been shown to mediate insulin and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1)-induced nitric oxide (NO) generation and, thus, vascular tone. A role for PI3-K in G-protein-coupled receptor signal transduction has been reported. As beta (beta2)-adrenergic vascular actions are partly dependent on NO, we have investigated the role of PI3-K in isoproterenol (Iso) and IGF-1 induced endothelial NO synthase (ecNOS) activity in rat aortic endothelial cells (RAEC). Cell lysates of RAEC, exposed to Iso (10 micromol/L) for 5 min and 6 h, and to IGF-1 (100 nM) for 10 min and 6 h, or pretreated with PI3-K inhibitor Wortmannin (WT), were used for measuring PI3-K activity, p85kDa regulatory protein, and citrulline production. Results show that Iso and IGF-1 increased a p85 subunit and citrulline production, and also enhanced 32P incorporation into PIP3. Pretreatment with WT inhibited Iso-stimulated ecNOS, as well as, PI3-K activity. Iso enhanced association of ecNOS with the triton X-100-insoluble fraction of RAEC. These data indicate that the endothelial cell PI3-K pathway mediates, in part, the release of NO and subsequent vasorelaxation in response to this beta-agonist, as well as, IGF-1. 相似文献

Sodium orthovanadate (SOV) can contract smooth muscle; however, little is known about its effect on the vascular endothelium. We compared the vasorelaxant effects of acetylcholine (ACh) and SOV in the preconstricted, isolated perfused mesenteric vascular bed (MVB) of Sprague-Dawley rats. The maximal relaxation response evoked by SOV (40-45%) was lower than ACh (92-94%) but the IC50 values were similar. At concentrations > 1 mM, SOV elevated the basal tone. Endothelial denudation resulted in a substantial reduction of relaxation responses to both agents, whereas either nitric oxide synthase (NOS) inhibitors or high KCl partially reduced the responses. A combination of NOS inhibitors along with either a calcium-activated potassium channel (KCa) blocker, tetrabutylammonium (TBA), or high KCI inhibited the responses to a similar extent as endothelium denudation. Neither clotrimazole nor TBA attenuated ACh responses; however, maximal responses to SOV in the presence of TBA or clotrimazole were reduced. Indomethacin had no effect on responses to either agonists. These results indicate that like ACh, SOV-mediated vasorelaxation of the MVB involves recruitment of both endothelial derived hyperpolarizing factor (EDHF) and endothelial derived nitric oxide (NO) and not vasodilator eicosanoids. As the relaxation to SOV was dose-dependent at a low concentration range, it is likely that vanadate is involved in the regulation of total peripheral resistance. 相似文献

We tested two hypotheses: 1) that the effects of hypercholesterolemia on endothelial function in femoral arteries exceed those reported in brachial arteries and 2) that exercise (Ex) training enhances endothelium-dependent dilation and improves femoral artery blood flow (FABF) in hypercholesterolemic pigs. Adult male pigs were fed a normal fat (NF) or high-fat/cholesterol (HF) diet for 20 wk. Four weeks after the diet was initiated, pigs were Ex trained or remained sedentary (Sed) for 16 wk, thus yielding four groups: NF-Sed, NF-Ex, HF-Sed, and HF-Ex. Endothelium-dependent vasodilator responses were assessed in vivo by measuring changes in FABF after intra-arterial injections of ADP and bradykinin (BK). Endothelium-dependent and -independent relaxation was assessed in vitro by measuring relaxation responses to BK and sodium nitroprusside (SNP). FABF increased in response to ADP and BK in all groups. FABF responses to ADP and BK were not impaired by HF but were improved by Ex in HF pigs. BK- and SNP-induced relaxation of femoral artery rings was not altered by HF or Ex. To determine whether the mechanism(s) for vasorelaxation of femoral arteries was altered by HF or Ex, BK-induced relaxation was assessed in vitro in the absence or presence of N(G)-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester [l-NAME; to inhibit nitric oxide synthase (NOS)], indomethacin (Indo; to inhibit cyclooxygenase), or l-NAME + Indo. BK-induced relaxation was inhibited by l-NAME and l-NAME + Indo in all groups of femoral arteries. Ex increased the NOS-dependent component of endothelium-dependent relaxation in NF (not HF) arteries. Indo did not inhibit BK-induced relaxation. Collectively, these results indicate that hypercholesterolemia does not alter endothelial function in femoral arteries and that Ex training improves FABF responses to ADP and BK; however, the improvement cannot be attributed to enhanced endothelial function in HF femoral arteries. These data suggest that Ex-induced improvements in FABF in HF arteries are mediated by vascular adaptations in arteries/arterioles downstream from the femoral artery. 相似文献

The role of endothelial calcium signaling in exercise-enhanced ACh-induced vasorelaxation was examined using male Wistar rats (8~10 wk old) that were divided into control and exercise groups. The exercised animals ran on a treadmill with progressive increments of speed until exhaustion. After decapitation, aortic rings were dissected and loaded with fura 2-AM. After being mounted on a tissue flow chamber, vessels were precontracted with phenylephrine, and ACh-induced endothelial calcium elevation and vasorelaxation were determined simultaneously under an epifluorescence microscope equipped with ratio imaging capability. Our results showed that 1) there was logarithmic correlation between endothelial calcium elevation and vasorelaxation; 2) acute exercise enhanced ACh-induced endothelial calcium elevation and vasorelaxation without altering their relationship; 3) pretreatment with N(omega)-nitro-L-arginine markedly reduced ACh-induced vasorelaxation in both groups but suppressed the calcium response only in the exercise group; and 4) the exercise effect on endothelial calcium elevation was abolished by Ca2+-free buffer or gadolinium. In conclusion, acute exercise increases ACh-induced vasorelaxation by increasing the endothelial calcium influx and the calcium-dependent nitric oxide release. 相似文献

Recently, it has been reported that losartan, an angiotensin II receptor (ATR) antagonist, depresses the angiotensin II-induced production of superoxide radicals. Also, in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) endothelial dysfunction is associated with decreased nitric oxide (NO) synthesis. In this study, we examined the effects of long-term ATR blockade and L-arginine supplementation on the haemodynamic parameters, glomerular filtration, and oxidative status in SHR. Adult male SHR were treated with losartan (10 mg/kg) and with the NO donor L-arginine (2 g/kg) for 4 weeks. The animals were divided into the following experimental groups: control (n = 7), L-arginine (n = 7), losartan (n = 7), and L-arginine + losartan (n = 7). Mean arterial pressure (MAP), regional blood flow, urea clearance, and activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) were measured at the end of treatment. MAP was significantly reduced in the losartan group compared with the control group (133.3 +/- 7.3 vs. 161.5 +/- 14.5 mm Hg). Aortic blood flow was significantly higher and aortic vascular resistance was significantly lower in all treated groups than in the control. Urea clearance rose significantly in the L-arginine + losartan group compared with control (393.27 +/- 37.58 vs. 218.68 +/- 42.03 microL x min(-1) x 100 g(-1)) as did the activity of SOD (1668.97 +/- 244.57 vs. 1083.18 +/- 169.96 U/g Hb). Our results suggest that the antihypertensive effect of losartan and L-arginine in SHR is not primarily mediated by increased SOD activity. Also, combined treatment with ATR blockade and L-arginine supplementation has a beneficial effect on renal function that is, at least in part, mediated by increased SOD activity in SHR. 相似文献

Insulin stimulates production of NO in vascular endothelium via activation of phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase, Akt, and endothelial NO synthase. We hypothesized that insulin resistance may cause imbalance between endothelial vasodilators and vasoconstrictors (e.g., NO and ET-1), leading to hypertension. Twelve-week-old male spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) were hypertensive and insulin resistant compared with control Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats (systolic blood pressure 202 +/- 11 vs. 132 +/- 10 mmHg; fasting plasma insulin 5 +/- 1 vs. 0.9 +/- 0.1 ng/ml; P < 0.001). In WKY rats, insulin stimulated dose-dependent relaxation of mesenteric arteries precontracted with norepinephrine (NE) ex vivo. This depended on intact endothelium and was blocked by genistein, wortmannin, or N(omega)-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester (inhibitors of tyrosine kinase, PI3-kinase, and NO synthases, respectively). Vasodilation in response to insulin (but not ACh) was impaired by 20% in SHR (vs. WKY, P < 0.005). Preincubation of arteries with insulin significantly reduced the contractile effect of NE by 20% in WKY but not SHR rats. In SHR, the effect of insulin to reduce NE-mediated vasoconstriction became evident when insulin pretreatment was accompanied by ET-1 receptor blockade (BQ-123, BQ-788). Similar results were observed during treatment with the MEK inhibitor PD-98059. In addition, insulin-stimulated secretion of ET-1 from primary endothelial cells was significantly reduced by pretreatment of cells with PD-98059 (but not wortmannin). We conclude that insulin resistance in SHR is accompanied by endothelial dysfunction in mesenteric vessels with impaired PI3-kinase-dependent NO production and enhanced MAPK-dependent ET-1 secretion. These results may reflect pathophysiology in other vascular beds that directly contribute to elevated peripheral vascular resistance and hypertension. 相似文献

[Purpose]
This study investigated the effects of high-intensity exercise (Ex) and high dietary fat intake on lipid metabolism in the liver of rats.[Methods]
Male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned to one of the four groups (n=10 per group) that were maintained on a normal diet (ND) or high-fat diet (HFD) consisting of 30% fat (w/w), with or without exercise on a treadmill at 30 m/min and 8% grade) for 4 weeks (i.e., ND, ND+Ex, HFD, and HFD+Ex groups).[Results]
Body weight (p<.001), total plasma cholesterol (TC) (p<.001), triglyceride (TG) (p<.05), and liver TG levels (p<.05) were increased in the HFD group relative to the ND groups, and serum glucose (p<.05), insulin (p<.05), homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) (p<.01), and liver TG levels (p<.01) were also higher in the HFD group compared to the ND+Ex group. Plasma free fatty acid was elevated in the HFD+Ex group compared to the HFD group (p<.01). With the exception of acetyl coenzyme A carboxylase, the expression of lipid metabolism-related genes in the liver was altered in the Ex groups compared to the control group (p<.05), with genes involved in lipolysis specifically up regulated in the HFD+Ex group compared to the other groups.[Conclusion]
Vigorous exercise may increase glucose utilization and fat oxidation by activating genes in the liver that are associated with lipid metabolism compared to that in animals consuming a HFD without exercise. Therefore, high intensity exercise can be considered to counter the adverse effects of high dietary fat intake. 相似文献13.

Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and insulin stimulate cardiac growth and contractility. Recent evidence suggests a relationship between essential hypertension, left ventricular hypertrophy, and circulating IGF-1 levels. Advanced age alters cardiac function in a manner similar to hypertension. The aim of this investigation was to evaluate the effects of IGF-1 and insulin on the force generating capacity of cardiac muscle in hypertension and the influence of age on this response. Contractile responses to IGF-1 and insulin were examined using papillary muscles from Wistar-Kyoto rats (WKY) and spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) at 10 and 25 weeks of age. Muscles were electrically stimulated at 0.5 Hz, and contractile properties, including peak tension development (PTD), time-to-peak tension, time-to-90% relaxation, and the maximal velocities of contraction and relaxation, were evaluated. PTD was similar in WKY and SHR myocardium at both age groups. At 10 weeks of age, IGF-1 (1-500 ng/ml) caused a dose-dependent increase in PTD in WKY but not SHR myocardium, whereas insulin (1-500 nM) had no effect on PTD in either group. At 25 weeks of age, the positive inotropic effect of IGF-1 was attenuated in the WKY group, and IGF-1 exerted no inotropic action in the SHR group. Pretreatment with the nitric oxide synthase inhibitor, N-omega-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME, 100 microM), did not alter the IGF-1-induced positive inotropic response in 10-week-old WKY myocardium, whereas it unmasked a positive inotropic action in muscles from age-matched SHR animals. At 25 weeks of age, L-NAME abolished IGF-1-induced a positive inotropic response in WKY myocardium, and did not unmask an IGF-induced inotropic response in SHR myocardium. Our results suggest that alterations in nitric oxide modulation of IGF-1-induced contraction may underlie resistance to this inotropic peptide with advancing age, and/or hypertension. 相似文献

The present study was aimed to evaluate the mechanisms involved in the vasorelaxant effects of red wine polyphenol compounds (RWPC) in small mesenteric rat arteries. RWPC produce relaxation in small mesenteric arteries. This relaxant effect was abolished by endothelial denudation, NO-synthase blockade with L-NAME and partial depolarization with KCl or L-NAME plus KCl. Incubation with the reactive oxygen species scavenger, superoxide dismutase (SOD) plus catalase, or inhibition of NAD(P)H-dependent oxidoreductases with diphenyleneiodonium also inhibited RWPC induced vascular relaxation. Application of RWPC elicited a transient increase in intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) in bovine aortic endothelial cells (BAEC), which was attenuated by a mixture of SOD and catalase. Incubation of BAEC with RWPC increased the SOD inhibitable production of O2-. These results suggest the involvement of O2- in the [Ca2+]i increase evoked by RWPC, leading to the activation of enzymes involved in the release of endothelial relaxant factors and subsequent vasodilatation of resistance arteries. 相似文献

[Purpose]
In this study, the authors have intended to investigate the effects that the exercise training and the intake of the water extract from propolis have on the activity of antioxidant enzymes.[Methods]
For this purpose, the exercise training (70% VO2max treadmill running exercise for 60min)of 5 times per week for six weeks and the intake (50mg/kg/day) of the water extract from propolis were performed by separating the experimental animals (SD rats, n=32) into CON(n=8) group, CON+Ex(n=8), PA(n=8), and PA+Ex(n=8).[Results]
As a result, the following conclusions were obtained: The concentration of the blood glucose and insulin of the CON+Ex group and PA+Ex group which are the exercise parallel group were significantly decreased in comparison with the control group, whereas if comparing the glycogen concentration in skeletal muscle and liver tissue between the exercise parallel group and the CON group, the former showed significantly high value in comparison with the latter (p < .05). In the case of the activity of the antioxidant enzyme in the skeletal muscle and the liver tissue, the activities of SOD, GPX and CAT in the gastrocnemius muscle tissue of the experimental animals showed significantly high value in PA+Ex group in comparison with other experimental groups (p < .05). In addition, the SOD activity in the liver tissue showed that only PA+Ex group was significantly increased, whereas GDX activity showed significantly higher value in CON+Ex group and PA group than CON group (p < .05). However, the activity of CAT in the liver tissue showed that there is no difference between the experimental groups. As a result that measured the concentration of MDA in order to evaluate the damage level of the tissue by oxygen free radicals, the difference between the groups in the liver tissue was not shown, while it was shown that only PA+Ex group in the skeletal muscle tissue was significantly decreased in comparison with other experimental groups (p < .05).[Conclusion]
Taken together the above findings, it is considered that the parallel treatment of the exercise training and the water extract from propolis can not only increase the use of glycogen of the skeletal muscle and liver tissue, but also it can give the effect to suppress the creation of active oxygen by inducing the activity of the antioxidant enzyme in the body, and in the future, the possibility as the exercise supplements and the antioxidant of the water-soluble propolis are expected. 相似文献16.

Previously, we showed that insulin growth factor (IGF)-1 binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3), independent of IGF-1, reduces pathological angiogenesis in a mouse model of the oxygen-induced retinopathy (OIR). The current study evaluates novel endothelium-dependent functions of IGFBP-3 including blood retinal barrier (BRB) integrity and vasorelaxation. To evaluate vascular barrier function, either plasmid expressing IGFBP-3 under the regulation of an endothelial-specific promoter or a control plasmid was injected into the vitreous humor of mouse pups (P1) and compared to the non-injected eyes of the same pups undergoing standard OIR protocol. Prior to sacrifice, the mice were given an injection of horseradish peroxidase (HRP). IGFBP-3 plasmid-injected eyes displayed near-normal vessel morphology and enhanced vascular barrier function. Further, in vitro IGFBP-3 protects retinal endothelial cells from VEGF-induced loss of junctional integrity by antagonizing the dissociation of the junctional complexes. To assess the vasodilatory effects of IGFBP-3, rat posterior cerebral arteries were examined in vitro. Intraluminal IGFBP-3 decreased both pressure- and serotonin-induced constrictions by stimulating nitric oxide (NO) release that were blocked by L-NAME or scavenger receptor-B1 neutralizing antibody (SRB1-Ab). Both wild-type and IGF-1-nonbinding mutant IGFBP-3 (IGFBP-3NB) stimulated eNOS activity/NO release to a similar extent in human microvascular endothelial cells (HMVECs). NO release was neither associated with an increase in intracellular calcium nor decreased by Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CamKII) blockade; however, dephosphorylation of eNOS-Thr(495) was observed. Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) activity and Akt-Ser(473) phosphorylation were both increased by IGFBP-3 and selectively blocked by the SRB1-Ab or PI3K blocker LY294002. In conclusion, IGFBP-3 mediates protective effects on BRB integrity and mediates robust NO release to stimulate vasorelaxation via activation of SRB1. This response is IGF-1- and calcium-independent, but requires PI3K/Akt activation, suggesting that IGFBP-3 has novel protective effects on retinal and systemic vasculature and may be a therapeutic candidate for ocular complications such as diabetic retinopathy. 相似文献

To clarify the mechanism underlying the antioxidant properties of l-carnitine (LC) and propionyl-l-carnitine (PLC) on spontaneously hypertensive (SHR) and normotensive WKY, animals were treated with either PLC or LC (200 mg kg(- 1)). Aorta was dissected and contraction to (R)-( - )-phenylephrine (Phe) and relaxation to carbachol (CCh) were assessed in the presence or not of the NO synthase (NOS) inhibitor, l-NAME. [image omitted] production was evaluated by lucigenin-enhanced chemiluminescence and its participation on relaxation was observed after incubation with superoxide dismutase (SOD) plus catalase. Protein expressions of eNOS, Cu/Zn-SOD and Mn-SOD were studied by western blot. Both LC and PLC treatments improved endothelial function of SHR through increasing NO participation and decreasing [image omitted] probably involving higher Cu/Zn-SOD expression. PLC treatment augmented eNOS expression in SHR. Surprisingly, LC increased [image omitted] produced by aorta from WKY and thus diminished NO and damaged endothelial function. Conversely, PLC did not affect CCh-induced relaxation in WKY. These results demonstrate that LC and PLC prevent endothelial dysfunction in SHR through an antioxidant effect. 相似文献

Administration of testosterone (T) to oophorectomized (Ovx) female rats is followed by severe insulin resistance, localized to postreceptor cellular events in the muscle. In this study, intervention by exercise was introduced to examine whether circulatory adaptations are involved in insulin resistance. Two groups of Ovx rats were studied: one group was given T (Ovx+T); another group had free access to running wheels (Ovx+T+Ex). In addition, one control group (sham operated) was studied. Insulin sensitivity was measured with the euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp technique (submaximal) for 150 min. Muscle interstitial glucose and insulin concentrations were measured by microdialysis. The measurements showed that, in Ovx+T rats, the onset of insulin action was significantly (P < 0.05) slower during the first 95 min of the clamp compared with that in Ovx+T+Ex and controls. Muscle interstitial concentrations of insulin but not glucose were lower in both Ovx+T and Ovx+T+Ex rats than in controls throughout the clamp. It was concluded that physical exercise prevented the slow onset of insulin action in Ovx+T rats without changing the distribution time of muscle interstitial insulin. The results indicate that hyperandrogenicity is characterized by delayed muscle insulin action.

白藜芦醇是天然存在的沉默信息调节因子2相关酶1(sirtuin1,SIRT1)小分子激动剂,其肾的保护作用已在多种肾疾病动物模型中得到了验证。然而,白藜芦醇是否能够改善力竭训练导致的大鼠肾损伤,以及是否通过SIRT1/NF κB信号通路调节运动性肾损伤大鼠肾炎症反应,尚缺乏系统研究。本研究将32只SD大鼠随机分为安静对照组(Con组),白藜芦醇组(Rsv组),力竭运动组(Ex组),力竭运动+白藜芦醇组(Ex+Rsv组)。Rsv和Ex+Rsv组每天灌胃50 mg/kg体重剂量的白藜芦醇, Ex和Ex+Rsv组进行4周力竭训练,最后1次训练后24 h取材。本研究结果显示,与Con组相比,Ex组大鼠Scr(175.66 ± 16.08 vs.153.34 ± 8.67,P < 0.01)、BUN(6.67 ± 0.53 vs.5.37 ± 019,P < 0.01)和尿NGAL(9.01 ± 0.18 vs.7.48 ± 0.31,P < 0.01)水平均显著升高,Ex组大鼠肾组织NF κB P65在蛋白质水平表达显著升高(0.77 ± 010 vs. 0.27 ± 0.03,P < 0.01);各组大鼠肾组织SIRT1在蛋白质水平表达上,Rsv组显著高于Con组(0.90 ± 0.14 vs. 0.43 ± 0.15,P < 0.05),Ex+Rsv组显著高于Ex组(1.0 ± 0.28 vs. 0.38 ± 0.12,P< 001);与Ex组相比,Ex+Rsv组大鼠肾组织NF-κB P65(0.57 ± 0.13 vs. 0.77 ± 0.10,P < 0.05)和Ac-NF-κB P65(0.52 ± 0.13 vs. 0.78 ± 0.11,P < 0.05)在蛋白质水平表达显著降低。以上结果表明,4周大强度力竭运动导致大鼠出现运动性肾损伤,并激活大鼠肾NF-κB的表达。白藜芦醇可显著提高大鼠肾组织SIRT1在蛋白质水平的表达,并增加脱乙酰化作用,降低NF-κB P65蛋白质乙酰化修饰水平,进一步降低NF-κB的表达。白藜芦醇减轻力竭训练致大鼠肾的炎症反应的机制可能与SIRT1/NF-κB通路有关。 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to determine the separate and combined effects of exercise and insulin on the activation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-kinase) and glycogen synthase in human skeletal muscle in vivo. Seven healthy men performed three trials in random order. The trials included 1) ingestion of 2 g/kg body wt carbohydrate in a 10% solution (CHO); 2) 75 min of semirecumbent cycling exercise at 75% of peak O(2) consumption; followed by 5 x 1-min maximal sprints (Ex); and 3) Ex, immediately followed by ingestion of the carbohydrate solution (ExCHO). Plasma glucose and insulin were increased (P < 0.05) at 15 and 30 (Post-15 and Post-30) min after the trial during CHO and ExCHO, although insulin was lower for ExCHO. Hyperinsulinemia during recovery in CHO and ExCHO led to an increase (P < 0.001) in PI3-kinase activity at Post-30 compared with basal, although the increase was lower (P < 0. 004) for ExCHO. Furthermore, PI3-kinase activity was suppressed (P < 0.02) immediately after exercise (Post-0) during Ex and ExCHO. Area under the insulin response curve for all trials was positively associated with PI3-kinase activity (r = 0.66, P < 0.001). Glycogen synthase activity did not increase during CHO but was increased (P < 0.05) at Post-0 and Post-30 during Ex and ExCHO. Ingestion of the drink increased (P < 0.05) carbohydrate oxidation during CHO and ExCHO, although the increase after ExCHO was lower (P < 0.05) than CHO. Carbohydrate oxidation was directly correlated with PI3-kinase activity for all trials (r = 0.63, P < 0.001). In conclusion, under resting conditions, ingestion of a carbohydrate solution led to activation of the PI3-kinase pathway and oxidation of the carbohydrate. However, when carbohydrate was ingested after intense exercise, the PI3-kinase response was attenuated and glycogen synthase activity was augmented, thus facilitating nonoxidative metabolism or storage of the carbohydrate. Activation of glycogen synthase was independent of PI3-kinase. 相似文献
