Bone homeostasis is profoundly affected by local pH and oxygen tension. It has long been recognised that the skeleton contains a large reserve of alkaline mineral (hydroxyapatite), which is ultimately available to neutralise metabolic H+ if acid-base balance is not maintained within narrow limits. Bone cells are extremely sensitive to the direct effects of pH: acidosis inhibits mineral deposition by osteoblasts but it activates osteoclasts to resorb bone and other mineralised tissues. These reciprocal responses act to maximise the availability of OH− ions from hydroxyapatite in solution, where they can buffer excess H+. The mechanisms by which bone cells sense small pH changes are likely to be complex, involving ion channels and receptors in the cell membrane, as well as direct intracellular effects. The importance of oxygen tension in the skeleton has also long been known. Recent work shows that hypoxia blocks the growth and differentiation of osteoblasts (and thus bone formation), whilst strongly stimulating osteoclast formation (and thus bone resorption). Surprisingly, the resorptive function of osteoclasts is unimpaired in hypoxia. In vivo, tissue hypoxia is usually accompanied by acidosis due to reduced vascular perfusion and increased glycolytic metabolism. Thus, disruption of the blood supply can engender a multiple negative impact on bone via the direct actions of reduced pO2 and pH on bone cells. These observations may contribute to our understanding of the bone disturbances that occur in numerous settings, including ageing, inflammation, fractures, tumours, anaemias, kidney disease, diabetes, respiratory disease and smoking. 相似文献

Exposure to mild hypoxia elicits a characteristic cerebrovascular response in mammals, including humans. Initially, cerebral blood flow (CBF) increases as much as twofold. The blood flow increase is blunted somewhat by a decreasing arterial Pco2 as a result of the hypoxia-induced hyperventilatory response. After a few days, CBF begins to fall back toward baseline levels as the blood oxygen-carrying capacity is increasing due to increasing hemoglobin concentration and packed red cell volume as a result of erythropoietin upregulation. By the end of 2 wk of hypoxic exposure, brain capillary density has increased with resultant decreased intercapillary distances. The relative time courses of these changes suggest that they are adjusted by different control signals and mechanisms. The CBF response appears linked to the blood oxygen-carrying capacity, whereas the hypoxia-induced brain angiogenesis appears to be in response to tissue hypoxia. 相似文献

Lamotrigine and phenytoin, but not amiodarone, impair peripheral chemoreceptor responses to hypoxia.
Amiodarone, lamotrigine, and phenytoin, common antiarrhythmic and antiepileptic drugs, inhibit a persistent sodium current in neurons (I(NaP)). Previous results from our laboratory suggested that I(NaP) is critical for functionality of peripheral chemoreceptors. In this study, we determined the effects of therapeutic levels of amiodarone, lamotrigine, and phenytoin on peripheral chemoreceptor and ventilatory responses to hypoxia. Action potentials (APs) of single chemoreceptor afferents were recorded using suction electrodes advanced into the petrosal ganglion of an in vitro rat peripheral chemoreceptor complex. AP frequency (at Po(2) approximately 150 Torr and Po(2) approximately 90 Torr), conduction time, duration, and amplitude were measured before and during perfusion with therapeutic dosages of the drug or vehicle. Hypoxia-induced catecholamine secretion within the carotid body was measured using amperometry. With the use of whole body plethysmography, respiration was measured in unanesthesized rats while breathing room air, 12% O(2), and 5% CO(2), before and after intraperitoneal administration of amiodarone, lamotrigine, phenytoin, or vehicle. Lamotrigine (10 microM) and phenytoin (5 microM), but not amiodarone (5 microM), decreased chemoreceptor AP frequency without affecting other AP parameters or magnitude of catecholamine secretion. Similarly, lamotrigine (5 mg/kg) and phenytoin (10 mg/kg) blunted the hypoxic but not the hypercapnic ventilatory response. In contrast, amiodarone (2.5 mg/kg) did not alter the ventilatory response to hypoxia or hypercapnia. We conclude that lamotrigine and phenytoin at therapeutic levels impair peripheral chemoreceptor function and ventilatory response to acute hypoxia. These are consistent with I(NaP) serving an important function in AP generation and may be clinically important in the care of patients using these drugs. 相似文献

During exercise, pulse oximetry is problematic due to motion artifact and altered digital perfusion. New pulse oximeter technology addresses these issues and may offer improved performance. We simultaneously compared Nellcor N-395 (Oxismart XLTM) pulse oximeters with an RS-10 forehead sensor (RS-10), a D-25 digit sensor (D-25), and the Ivy 2000 (Masimo SETTM)/LNOP-Adt digit sensor (Ivy) to arterial blood oxygen saturation (Sa(O(2))) by cooximetry. Nine normal subjects, six athletes, and four patients with chronic disease exercised to maximum oxygen consumption (VO(2 max)) under various conditions [normoxia, hypoxia inspired oxygen fraction (FI(O(2))) = 0.125; hyperoxia, FI(O(2)) = 1.0]. Regression analysis for normoxia and hypoxic data was performed (n = 161 observations, Sa(O(2)) = 73-99.9%), and bias (B) and precision (P) were calculated. RS10 offered greater validity than the other two devices tested (y = 1.009x - 0.52, R(2) = 0.90, B+/-P = 0.3 +/- 2.5). Finger sensors had low precision and a significant negative bias (D-25: y = 1.004x - 2.327, R(2) = 0.52, B+/-P = -2.0 +/- 7.3; Ivy: y = 1.237x - 24.2, R(2) = 0.78, B+/-P = -2.0 +/- 5.2). Eliminating measurements in which heart rate differed by >10 beats/min from the electrocardiogram value improved precision minimally and did not affect bias substantially (B+/-P = 0.5 +/- 2.0, -1.8 +/- 8.4, and -1.25+/-4.33 for RS-10, D-25, and Ivy, respectively). Signal detection algorithms and pulse oximeter were identical between RS-10 and D-25; thus the improved performance of the forehead sensor is likely because of sensor location. RS-10 should be considered for exercise testing in which pulse oximetry is desirable. 相似文献

Intermittent hypoxia (IH) resulting from sleep apnea can lead to pulmonary hypertension (PH) and right heart failure, similar to chronic sustained hypoxia (CH). Supplemental CO(2), however, attenuates hypoxic PH. We therefore hypothesized that, similar to CH, IH elicits PH and associated increases in arterial endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) expression, ionomycin-dependent vasodilation, and receptor-mediated pulmonary vasoconstriction. We further hypothesized that supplemental CO(2) inhibits these responses to IH. To test these hypotheses, we measured eNOS expression by Western blot in intrapulmonary arteries from CH (2 wk, 0.5 atm), hypocapnic IH (H-IH) (3 min cycles of 5% O(2)/air flush, 7 h/day, 2 wk), and eucapnic IH (E-IH) (3 min cycles of 5% O(2), 5% CO(2)/air flush, 7 h/day, 2 wk) rats and their respective controls. Furthermore, vasodilatory responses to the calcium ionophore ionomycin and vasoconstrictor responses to the thromboxane mimetic U-46619 were measured in isolated saline-perfused lungs from each group. Hematocrit, arterial wall thickness, and right ventricle-to-total ventricle weight ratios were additionally assessed as indexes of polycythemia, arterial remodeling, and PH, respectively. Consistent with our hypotheses, E-IH resulted in attenuated polycythemia, arterial remodeling, RV hypertrophy, and eNOS upregulation compared with H-IH. However, in contrast to CH, neither H-IH nor E-IH increased ionomycin-dependent vasodilation. Furthermore, H-IH and E-IH similarly augmented U-46619-induced pulmonary vasoconstriction but to a lesser degree than CH. We conclude that maintenance of eucapnia decreases IH-induced PH and upregulation of arterial eNOS. In contrast, increases in pulmonary vasoconstrictor reactivity following H-IH are unaltered by exposure to supplemental CO(2). 相似文献

Exposure of rats to hypobaric stress for periods of up to 36 h caused a consistent change in the succinate-NT reductase activity of the heart mitochondria whereas there was no significant change in the activities of either succinate dehydrogenase and succinate-NT reductase of the brain and the kidney. Mitochondrial succinate dehydrogenase of the heart, the brain and the kidney was activated 2- to 7-fold with the substrate and malonate. The activations obtained with oxalate, citrate and dinitrophenol were relatively lower in comparison to succinate and malonate. Benzohydroquinone and 2-nitrophenol had no stimulatory effect on the heart, the brain and the kidney mitochondria. THE ACTIVATIONS OBTAINED WITH THE VARIOUS EFFECTORS PARTIALLY (OR COMPLETELY IN THE CASE OF SUCCINATE) REVERSED ON WASHING THE MITOCHONDRIAL SAMPLES WITH THE SUCROSE HOMOGENIZING MEDIUM. The effect of ubiquinol, which also activated the enzyme, was only partially reversed after the second preincubation with succinate in the brain and the kidney whereas in the heart the activity was fully reversed. The increased activity of succinate dehydrogenase obtained with ATP and ADP was further enhanced by Mg2+ exclusively in the brain mitochondria, suggesting the possibility of Mg2+-AIP complex as the active species. Succinate-NT reductase of the heart, the brain and the kidney mitochondria showed a high activation with ubiquinone whereas its reduced form had no stimulatory effect. 相似文献

We have described a rat model that responds to repetitive episodic hypoxia (12-s infusions of nitrogen into daytime sleeping chambers every 30 s, 7 h/day for 35 days) with an increase in diurnal systemic blood pressure. We hypothesized that afferent information from the peripheral chemoreceptors may be necessary to produce diurnal blood pressure elevation in this hypoxia model. Carotid body denervation (CBD) was accomplished by severing both carotid sinus nerves in two groups of male Wistar rats (250-375 g). Group 4 CBD rats were subjected to intermittent hypoxia for 35 days (3-5% nadir ambient O2) as described above, whereas group 5 CBD rats remained unhandled in their usual cages. Additional sham-operated controls included group 2 sham-"hypoxia" rats, which were housed in chambers identical to the hypoxia rats but supplied with compressed air instead of nitrogen, group 1 (not denervated) rats, which remained unhandled in their usual cages, and group 3 sham-operated rats, which were subjected to 35 days of intermittent hypoxia identical to group 4 CBD rats. Femoral arterial baseline and end-of-study blood pressures were measured in conscious rats. The group 3 rats exposed to episodic hypoxia displayed a 13-mmHg increase in mean blood pressure, whereas the other groups showed no significant change from baseline. Left ventricular hypertrophy was evident in all rats exposed to episodic hypoxia, but right ventricular hypertrophy was evident only in the group 4 rats. All CBD rats developed increased hematocrit and hemoglobin, while the group 3 rats (non-CBD, episodic hypoxia) did not. The baroreceptor reflex at baseline was not depressed in the CBD rats.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

We hypothesized that, in male rats, 10% fructose in drinking water would depress ventilatory responsiveness to acute hypoxia (10% O2 in N2) and hypercapnia (5% CO2 in O2) that would be depressed further by exposure to intermittent hypoxia. Minute ventilation (Ve) in air and in response to acute hypoxia and hypercapnia was evaluated in 10 rats before fructose feeding (FF), during 6 wk of FF, and after FF was removed for 2 wk. During FF, five rats were exposed to intermittent air and five to intermittent hypoxia for 13 days. Six rats given tap water acted as control and were exposed to intermittent air and subsequently intermittent hypoxia. In FF rats, plasma insulin levels increased threefold in the rats exposed to intermittent hypoxia and during washout returned to levels observed in rats exposed to intermittent air. During FF, ventilatory responsiveness to acute hypoxia was depressed because of decreased tidal volume (Vt) responsiveness. During washout, Ve decreased as a result of decreased Vt and frequency of breathing, and the ventilatory responsiveness to hypoxia in intermittent hypoxia rats did not recover. In all rats, the ventilatory responses to hypercapnia were decreased during FF and recovered after washout because of an increased Vt responsiveness. In the control group, hypoxic responsiveness was not depressed after intermittent hypoxia and was augmented after washout. Thus FF attenuated the ventilatory responsiveness of conscious rats to hypoxia and hypercapnia. Intermittent hypoxia interacted with FF to increase insulin levels and depress ventilatory responses to acute hypoxia that remained depressed during washout. 相似文献

Systemic hypoxia, produced by lowering inspired Po2, induces a rapid inflammation in several microcirculations, including cremaster muscle. Mast cell activation is a necessary element of this response. Selective reduction of cremaster microvascular Po2 (PmO2) with normal systemic arterial Po2 (PaO2; cremaster hypoxia/systemic normoxia), however, does not elicit increased leukocyte-endothelial adherence (LEA) in cremaster venules. This could be due to a short time of leukocyte exposure to the hypoxic cremaster environment. Conversely, LEA increases when PaO2 is lowered, while cremaster PmO2 remains high (cremaster normoxia/systemic hypoxia). An alternative explanation of these results is that a mediator released from a central site during systemic hypoxia initiates the inflammatory cascade. We hypothesized that if this is the case, cremaster mast cells would be activated during cremaster normoxia/systemic hypoxia, but not during cremaster hypoxia/systemic normoxia. The microcirculation of rat cremaster muscles was visualized by using intravital microscopy. Cremaster PmO2 was measured with a phosphorescence quenching method. Cremaster hypoxia/systemic normoxia (PmO2 7 +/- 1 Torr, PaO2 87 +/- 2 Torr) did not increase LEA; however, topical application of the mast cell activator compound 48/80 under these conditions did increase LEA. The effect of compound 48/80 on LEA was blocked by topical cromolyn, a mast cell stabilizer. LEA increased during cremaster normoxia/systemic hypoxia, (PmO2 64 +/- 5 Torr, PaO2 33 +/- 2 Torr); this increase was blocked by topical cromolyn. The results suggest that mast cell stimulation occurs only when PaO2 is reduced, independent of cremaster PmO2, and support the idea of a mediator that is released during systemic hypoxia and initiates the inflammatory cascade. 相似文献

Diseases featuring abnormally low alveolar PO2 are frequently accompanied by systemic effects. The common presence of an underlying inflammatory component suggests that inflammation may contribute to the pathogenesis of the systemic effects of alveolar hypoxia. While the role of alveolar macrophages in the immune and defense functions of the lung has been long known, recent evidence indicates that activation of alveolar macrophages causes inflammatory disturbances in the systemic microcirculation. The purpose of this review is to describe observations in experimental animals showing that alveolar macrophages initiate a systemic inflammatory response to alveolar hypoxia. Evidence obtained in intact animals and in primary cell cultures indicate that alveolar macrophages activated by hypoxia release a mediator(s) into the circulation. This mediator activates perivascular mast cells and initiates a widespread systemic inflammation. The inflammatory cascade includes activation of the local renin-angiotensin system and results in increased leukocyte-endothelial interactions in post-capillary venules, increased microvascular levels of reactive O2 species; and extravasation of albumin. Given the known extrapulmonary responses elicited by activation of alveolar macrophages, this novel phenomenon could contribute to some of the systemic effects of conditions featuring low alveolar PO2. 相似文献
