C-type natriuretic peptides (CNP) play an inhibitory role in smooth muscle motility of the gastrointestinal tract, but the effect of CNP on delayed rectifier potassium currents is still unclear. This study was designed to investigate the effect of CNP on delayed rectifier potassium currents and its mechanism by using conventional whole-cell patch-clamp technique in guinea-pig gastric myocytes isolated by collagenase. CNP significantly inhibited delayed rectifier potassium currents [I(K (V))] in dose-dependent manner, and CNP inhibited the peak current elicited by depolarized step pulse to 86.1+/-1.6 % (n=7, P<0.05), 78.4+/-2.6 % (n=10, P<0.01) and 67.7+/-2.3 % (n=14, P<0.01), at concentrations of 0.01 micromol/l, 0.1 micromol/l and 1 micromol/l, respectively, at +60 mV. When the cells were preincubated with 0.1 micromol/l LY83583, a guanylate cyclase inhibitor, the 1 ?micromol/l CNP-induced inhibition of I(K (V)) was significantly impaired but when the cells were preincubated with 0.1 micromol/l zaprinast, a cGMP-sensitive phosphodiesterase inhibitor, the 0.01 micromol/l CNP-induced inhibition of I(K (V)) was significantly potentiated. 8-Br-cGMP, a membrane permeable cGMP analogue mimicked inhibitory effect of CNP on I(K (V)). CNP-induced inhibition of I(K (V)) was completely blocked by KT5823, an inhibitor of cGMP-dependent protein kinase (PKG). The results suggest that CNP inhibits the delayed rectifier potassium currents via cGMP-PKG signal pathway in the gastric antral circular myocytes of the guinea-pig. 相似文献

The role of C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) in the gastrointestinal tract is still unclear. This study was designed to investigate the effect of CNP on barium current (I(Ba)) through the L-type calcium channel in gastric antral myocytes of guinea pigs. The whole-cell patch clamp technique was performed in gastric antral myocytes isolated by collagenase in guinea pigs. CNP significantly inhibited I(Ba) in a dose-dependent manner at the concentrations of 0.001, 0.01, and 0.1 micromol/l, CNP inhibited I(Ba) to 81.56 +/- 2.48 %, 73.64 +/- 3.65 %, and 57.77 +/- 4.93 % of control at 0 mV, respectively. The values of steady-state half-inactivation voltage (33.6 +/- 2.6 mV and 33.8 +/- 3.4 mV, in control and CNP groups, respectively) or the half-activation voltage (-12.6 +/- 2.2 mV and 12.4 +/- 1.8 mV) of I(Ba) were not significantly changed (p > 0.05, n = 6). 8-br-cGMP (1 mmol/l) mimicked the effect of CNP on I(Ba), and the peak current of I(Ba) was inhibited from -403.84 +/- 61.87 pA to 318.94 +/- 67.17 pA (p < 0.05, n = 5). In the presence of LY83583 (0.1 micromol/l), a nonspecific inhibitor of guanylate cyclase, CNP (0.1 micromol/l)-induced inhibition of I(Ba) was partially blocked (n = 13, p < 0.05 ). However, when the cell was pretreated with zaprinast (0.1 micromol/l), an inhibitor of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) sensitive phosphoesterase, the inhibitory effect of CNP on I(Ba) was significantly potentiated (n = 11, p < 0.05). KT5823 (1 micromol/l), a cGMP-dependent protein kinase (PKG) inhibitor, almost completely blocked CNP-induced inhibition of I(Ba). The results suggested that CNP can inhibit L-type calcium channel currents, and the inhibitory effect is mediated by pGC-cGMP-PKG-dependent signal pathway in gastric antral myocytes of guinea pigs. 相似文献

We investigated the effects of cGMP-elevating agents, including atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) and sodium nitroprusside (SNP), on cGMP accumulation and on carbachol (CCh)-stimulated intracellular calcium ([Ca2+]i) mobilisation in SV-40 transformed cat iris sphincter smooth muscle (SV-CISM-2) cells and in primary cultured cat iris sphincter smooth muscle (CISM) cells. The stimulatory effects of the natriuretic peptides on cGMP production correlated well with their inhibitory effects on CCh-induced [Ca+1]i mobilisation, and these effects were significantly more pronounced in the SV-CISM-2 cells than in the CISM cells. Thus, ANP (1 microM) increased cGMP production in the SV-CISM-2 cells and CISM cells by 487- and 1.7-fold, respectively, and inhibited CCh-induced [Ca2+]i mobilisation by 95 and 3%, respectively. In the SV-CISM-2 cells, ANP and CNP dose dependently inhibited CCh-induced [Ca2+]i mobilisation with IC50 values of 156 and 412 nM, respectively, and dose dependently stimulated cGMP formation with EC50 values of 24 and 88 nM, respectively, suggesting that the inhibitory actions of the peptides are mediated through cGMP. Both ANP and CNP stimulated cGMP accumulation in a time-dependent manner. The potency of the cGMP-elevating agents were in the following order: ANP>CNP>SNP; these agents had no effect on cAMP accumulation. The inhibitory effects of the natriuretic peptides were mimicked by 8-Br-cGMP, a selective activator of cGMP-dependent protein kinase. LY83583, a soluble guanylyl cyclase inhibitor, significantly inhibited SNP-induced cGMP formation but had no effect on those of ANP and CNP. The basal activities of the guanylyl cyclase and the dissociation constant (Kd) and total receptor density (Bmax) values of the natriuretic peptide receptor for [125I]ANP binding were not significantly different between the two cell types. The cGMP system, as with the cAMP system, has a major inhibitory influence on the muscarinic responses in the iris sphincter smooth muscle cells, and SV-CISM-2 cells can serve as an excellent model for investigating the cross talk between cGMP and the Ca2+ signalling system. 相似文献

Pacemaker currents modulated by C-type natriuretic peptide in interstitial cells of Cajal from murine small intestine 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Although the presence of C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) in gastrointestinal tract has been demonstrated, the effect of CNP on interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC), pacemaker cells in gastrointestinal tract, is still unclear. This study was designed to investigate the effect of CNP on pacemaker currents of ICC and possible mechanisms. We used immunocytochemistry techniques to exhibit natriuretic peptide receptors (NPR) and recorded membrane currents by using whole-cell patch clamp technique on cultured ICC. Our experiment showed that NPR-A and NPR-B were expressed in ICC from murine small intestine. Whole cell recordings further showed that the amplitude of pacemaker currents in intestinal small networks of ICC was 322+/-22pA and the frequency was 16.25+/-0.95Hz. CNP significantly reduced the amplitude of pacemaker currents in small networks of ICC in a dose-dependent manner, and the amplitude was inhibited by 23.95%, 61.76% and 81.67%, the amplitude values in 329+/-28.0pA, 311.2+/-14.8pA and 295+/-26.5pA before treatment with CNP and 237.9+/-27.5pA, 119.6+/-18.5pA and 57.2+/-13.5pA after treatment with 0.01 micromolxL(-1), 0.1 micromolxL(-1) and 1pmolxL(-1) CNP, respectively. The frequencies of pacemaker currents were also significantly reduced from 16.25+/-0.95Hz of control to 13+/-0.9Hz, 12+/-0.8Hz and 3+/-0.2Hz by 0.01micromolxL 1, 0.1micromolxL(-1) and 1 micromol x L(-1) CNP, respectively. CNP also inhibited the amplitude of pacemaker currents in single ICC. The inhibitory effect of CNP was mimicked by 8-Br-cGMP, a membrane permeable cGMP analogue, which suggests that CNP could inhibit pacemaker currents via NPR-B-particulate guanylate cyclase (pGC)-cGMP signal pathway. 相似文献

Our previous study demonstrated that natriuretic peptides (NPs) play an inhibitory role in regulation of gastric smooth muscle motility. However, it is not clear whether NPs are involved in diabetics-induced loss of gastric interstitial cell of Cajal (ICC). The present study was designed to investigate the relationship between diabetics-induced loss of gastric ICC and natriuretic peptide signaling pathway in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic mice. The results showed that the protein expression levels of c-Kit and membrane-bound stem cell factor (mSCF) in gastric smooth muscle layers were decreased in STZ-induced diabetic mice. However, both mRNA and protein expression levels of natriuretic peptide receptor (NPR)-A, B and C were increased in the same place of the diabetic mice. The amplitude of spontaneous contraction in gastric antral smooth muscles was inhibited by C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) dose-dependently and the inhibitory effect was potentiated in diabetic mice. Pretreatment of the cultured gastric smooth muscle cells (GSMCs) with different concentration of CNP can significantly decrease the mSCF expression level. 8-Bromoguanosine-3′,5′-cyclomo-nophosphate (8-Br-cGMP), a membrane permeable cGMP analog, mimicked the effect of CNP but not cANF (a specific NPR-C agonist). Methylthiazolyldiphenyl-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay showed that high concentration of cANF (10−6 mol/L) inhibited cell proliferation in cultured GSMCs. These findings suggest that up-regulation of NPs/NPR-A, B/cGMP and NPs/NPR-C signaling pathways may be involved in diabetes-induced loss of gastric ICC. 相似文献

Activation of particulate guanylate cyclase by adrenomedullin in cultured SV-40 transformed cat iris sphincter smooth muscle (SV-CISM-2) cells 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
We investigated the effects of adrenomedullin (ADM) on cGMP production in cultured SV-40 transformed cat iris sphincter smooth muscle (SV-CISM-2) cells. ADM increased cGMP accumulation in a time- and concentration- dependent manner. The peptide increased cGMP formation in the transformed cells by 405-fold as compared to 1. 6-fold in primary cultured CISM cells. The basal cGMP concentrations in both cell types were comparable. In addition, ADM increased cAMP accumulation in SV-CISM-2 cells and in primary cultured cells by 18. 9- and 5.8-fold, respectively. The ADM receptor antagonist, ADM(26-52), but not the atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) receptor antagonist, anantin, inhibited ADM-induced cGMP formation. The phorbol ester, phorbol 12, 13-dibutyrate (PDBu), which inhibits particulate guanylate cyclases in smooth muscle, blocked ADM-stimulated cGMP accumulation. In contrast, inhibitors of the soluble guanylate cyclases, such as LY83583 and ODQ, and inhibitors of the nitric oxide cascade had little effect on ADM-stimulated cGMP production. The stimulatory effect of ADM on cGMP formation is due to activation of the guanylate cyclase system and not to a much reduced phosphodiesterase activity. ADM stimulated guanylate cyclase activity in membrane fractions isolated from SV-CISM-2 cells in a concentration-dependent manner with EC(50) value of 72 nM. Pertussis toxin, an activator of the G-protein, Gi, inhibited ADM-stimulated cGMP accumulation, whereas cholera toxin, a stimulator of the Gs G-protein and subsequently cAMP accumulation, had little effect. Pretreatment of the plasma membrane fraction with Gialpha antibody attenuated ADM-stimulated guanylate cyclase activity by 75%. We conclude that ADM increases intracellular cGMP levels in SV-CISM-2 cells through activation of the ADM receptor and subsequent stimulation of a Gi-mediated membrane-bound guanylate cyclase. 相似文献

Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) and C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) are present in adrenal chromaffin cells, and are co-secreted with catecholamines suggesting that these natriuretic peptides (NPs) may modulate functions of chromaffin cells in an autocrine and/or paracrine manner. Therefore, we investigated the effects of NPs on tyrosine hydroxylase (TH: a rate-limiting enzyme in biosynthesis of catecholamine) mRNA in rat pheochromocytoma PC12 cells. It was also determined whether the cyclic GMP/cGMP-dependent protein kinase (cGMP/PKG) pathway was involved in theses effects. Finally, we examined the effects of NPs on intracellular catecholamine content to confirm increase of catecholamine synthesis following TH mRNA induction. NPs (0.1 microM) induced significant increases of the TH mRNA (ANP= BNP> CNP). Also, the effects of NPs on TH mRNA were mimicked by 8-bromo cyclic GMP (1mM), and were blocked by KT5823 (1 microM) (inhibitor PKG) or LY83583 (1 microM) (guanylate cyclase inhibitor). Moreover, NPs were shown to induce significant increases of intracellular catecholamine contents (ANP= BNP> CNP). These findings suggest that NPs induced increases of TH mRNA through cGMP/PKG dependent mechanisms, which, in turn, resulted in stimulation of catecholamine synthesis in PC12 cells. 相似文献

C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) which potently stimulates particulate guanylate cyclase activity in cultured rat vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) inhibited serum-induced DNA synthesis of the cells 10-fold more effectively than alpha-human atrial natriuretic peptide (alpha-hANP). The inhibitory effect of CNP was mimicked by 8-bromo-cGMP. The proliferation of VSMC was also suppressed by CNP more potently than alpha-hANP, while the peptide was less active for cGMP augmentation and for vasorelaxation than alpha-hANP in isolated rat aorta. These results suggest that CNP may be a growth regulating factor of VSMC rather than a vasodilator. 相似文献

We investigated the effects of endothelins (ETs) on cGMP production in cultured SV-40 transformed cat iris sphincter smooth muscle (SV-CISM-2) cells. ET-3 increased cGMP formation in a concentration-dependent manner (EC50 = 98nM), which was 2.5 times higher than that of ET-1. The ET(B)receptor agonists sarafotoxin-S6c and IRL 1620 also increased cGMP production, mimicking the effects of the ETs. The ET(B) receptor antagonist BQ 788, but not the ET(A) receptor antagonist BQ610, dose-dependently blocked ET-3-stimulated cGMP formation (IC50=10nM). The phorbol ester, Phorbol 12, 13-dibutyrate (PDBu), which inhibits particulate guanylyl cyclase in smooth muscle, dose-dependently inhibited ET-3-stimulated cGMP accumulation (IC50=66nM). LY83583 and ODQ, inhibitors of soluble guanylyl cyclases, as well as inhibitors of the nitric oxide cascade and of intracellular Ca2+ elevation had no appreciable effect on ET-3-induced cGMP production. ET-3 markedly inhibited carbachol-induced intracellular Ca2+ mobilization. We conclude that ET-3 increases intracellular cGMP levels in SV-CISM-2 cells through activation of the ET(B) receptor subtype and subsequent stimulation of the membrane-bound guanylyl cyclase. Elevation of cGMP by ET and the subsequent inhibition of muscarinic stimulation of intracellular Ca2+ mobilization by the cyclic nucleotide could serve to modulate the contractile effects of Ca2+-mobilizing agonists in the iris sphincter smooth muscle. 相似文献

Elevation of cyclic GMP by muscarinic agonists has been suggested to be responsible for the negative inotropic effects of these agents in cardiac muscle, and for the endothelium-dependent relaxation caused by these agents in vascular smooth muscle. These relationships were studied by monitoring the effects of muscarinic agonists on tension and cyclic GMP levels in rabbit left atrial strips and aortic rings, in the presence and absence of the cyclic GMP lowering agent, LY83583. LY83583 completely blocked both the cyclic GMP increase and the relaxation caused by acetylcholine in rabbit aortic rings with intact endothelial cells. Acetylcholine-induced cyclic GMP elevation and relaxation in these preparations were also blocked by quinacrine and nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA), but neither response was blocked by the 5-lipoxygenase inhibitor U-60257. In the experiments with rabbit left atrium, LY83583 blocked the acetylcholine-induced cyclic GMP elevation but did not block the negative inotropic effects of the drug. Quinacrine, NDGA, and a guanylate cyclase inhibitor, methylene blue, failed to block either the cyclic GMP increase or the decrease in contractile force caused by carbachol in atrial strips. These results support the suggestion that an increase in cyclic GMP may be responsible for the endothelium-dependent relaxation of rabbit aorta by muscarinic agonists, but not for the direct negative inotropic effects of these drugs in rabbit atrium. Muscarinic agents appear to increase cyclic GMP levels in rabbit atrium and aorta by different mechanisms. Although both are blocked by LY83583, they differ not only in their requirements for endothelial cells, but also in their susceptibility to other blocking agents. 相似文献

The effect of cyclic GMP on rabbit corporal smooth muscle tone and its modulation by cyclo-oxygenase products 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Corporal smooth muscle (CSM) tone is maintained by a finite balance between relaxant and contractile neurotransmitters. The aim of these experiments was to ascertain the degree to which cyclic GMP is involved in these interactions. We also sought to elucidate the pharmacological mechanism of action of MB in rabbit corpus cavernosum (RCC), an important tool in nitric oxide research. Using an organ chamber technique, strips of RCC were treated with the guanylate cyclase inhibitors Methylene Blue (MB) and LY83583; 100 microM MB led to increases in resting tension which were antagonized by indomethacin, nifedipine, phentolamine, but not superoxide dismutase (SOD). Contractile responses to noradrenaline (NA) were increased and relaxation to ACh was impaired by both MB and LY83583 and reversed with indomethacin, but not SOD. Pyrogallol had no effect on agonist-induced responses. The pharmacological action of MB in RCC does not depend on the generation of superoxide anions. Endothelium-dependent relaxation in RCC results in activation of soluble guanylate cyclase and release of a stable endothelium derived contracting factor(s), which is likely to be a constrictor prostanoid(s). Tonic production of cGMP in RCC inhibits the presynaptic release and contractile effects of NA and can be modulated by cyclo-oxygenase inhibition, demonstrating the important interaction and functional antagonism between cGMP and prostaglandins in the control of CSM tone. 相似文献

It is well known that natriuretic peptides (NPs) are involved in the regulation of gastrointestinal motility. Interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC) are the pacemaker cells of gastrointestinal motility and gastrointestinal dyskinesia is one of the important digestive tract symptoms of depression. However, it is unclear whether they are involved in depression-induced loss of ICC. The aim of the present study was to investigate the relationship between the natriuretic peptide signaling pathway and depression-induced loss of gastric ICC in depressed rats. These results showed that the expression of c-kit and stem cell factor (SCF) in smooth muscle layers of stomach were down-regulated in depressed rats at the mRNA and protein levels. The expression of natriuretic peptide receptor (NPR)-A, B and C were up-regulated in the stomach of depressed rats at the mRNA and protein levels. NPR-A, B and C can significantly decrease the expression of SCF to treat cultured gastric smooth muscle cells (GSMCs) obtained from normal rats with different concentrations of C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP). Pretreatment of cultured GSMCs with 8-Brom-cGMP (8-Br-cGMP, a membrane permeable cGMP analog), cANF (a specific NPR-C agonist) and CNP (10−6 mol/L) demonstrated that 8-Br-cGMP had a similar effect as CNP, but treatment with cANF did not. The results of the methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay indicated that high concentrations of cANF (10−6 mol/L) restrained the proliferation of cultured GSMCs. Taken together, these results indicate that the up-regulation of the NPs/NPR-C and NPs/NPR-A, B/cGMP signaling pathways may be involved in depression-induced loss of gastric ICC. 相似文献

We have shown that endogenous nitrogen oxides (NOx) modulate excitation-contraction coupling in diaphragm. Because cyclic GMP (cGMP) is a second messenger for nitric oxide (NO) inhibition of smooth muscle contraction, we rested the hypothesis that NO acts via cGMP in diaphragm. Fiber bundles from rat diaphragm were studied in vitro. Immunohistochemical analysis using a cGMP-specific monoclonal antibody confirmed the presence of cGMP in the subsarcolemmal region, near nitric oxide synthase (NOS). cGMP measured by ELISA in control muscle (0.27 pmol/mg +/- 0.01 SE) was significantly increased by the NO donor S-nitroso-N-acetylcysteine 1 mM (0.55+/-0.05; N = 6; P < 0.001). Contractile studies showed that the nitric oxide synthase inhibitor N-nitro-L-arginine (L-NNA) 10 mM increased submaximal (40 Hz) tetanic force (P < 0.0001). L-NNA effects were exaggerated by the guanylate cyclase inhibitor LY83583 5-10 microM; force at 40 Hz was increased (P < 0.001). L-NNA effects were partially reversed by 8-bromo-cGMP 1 mM (8-Br-GMP; a cell-permeable cGMP analogue; P < 0.0001) or dipyridamole 10 microM (DPM; a phosphodiesterase inhibitor; P < 0.0001). 8-Br-GMP and DPM produced more-complete L-NNA reversal in combination (P < 0.0001). We conclude that cGMP functions as a second messenger by which NO inhibits diaphragm contraction. 相似文献

Our main objective was to test the efficacy of 6-anilino-5,8-quinolinedione (LY83583) in vivo, a putative inhibitor of cyclic guanosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cGMP) production. If the drug proved capable of lowering plasma, vascular, and kidney levels of cGMP and of inhibiting the hypotensive effect of sodium nitroprusside and methacholine, then LY83583 could be of potential use in exploring the contribution of cGMP to cardiovascular and renal physiology. We found that when administered to trained conscious rats, LY83583 (1-mg/kg bolus, followed by a 2-hr infusion of 3 mg/kg.hr) decreased plasma cGMP concentration by 36% (P less than 0.01). Doubling the dosage of drug (2-mg/kg bolus, 6 mg/kg.hr) decreased plasma cGMP by 46% (P less than 0.05). We next measured tissue levels of cGMP ex vivo from rats that had received LY83583 or vehicle for 2 hr. The cGMP content of aortic segments when LY83583 was infused at the low dose, or renal cortical tissue when LY83583 was infused at both doses, was not significantly different from the cGMP content of tissue from rats that had received vehicle. LY83583 in doses up to 10-mg/kg bolus, followed by 6 mg/kg.hr infusion also failed to attenuate the hypotensive response to sodium nitroprusside or methacholine in conscious rats. Last, we tested whether, in our hands, LY83583 could reduce cGMP of aortic segments and kidney cortical slices in vitro. We found that after 10 min of incubation, 10(-5) M LY83583 decreased intracellular cGMP by approximately 65% and 50% in aortic and kidney tissues, respectively. In order to ascertain whether LY83583 lowered cGMP by stimulating phosphodiesterase, we incubated tissues with 10(-4) M 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine to inhibit the enzyme. In the presence of 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine LY83583 still exerted an inhibitory effect on cGMP production by aortic and kidney tissues. In conclusion, although LY83583 is a useful agent to lower renal and vascular tissues levels of cGMP in vitro, its efficacy in vivo seems doubtful. 相似文献

Good evidence exists to indicate that the vasodilating effect of adenosine is mediated by cell surface receptors on vascular smooth muscle cells. The mechanism of transmembrane signal transduction for adenosine, however, is not fully understood. Since cGMP is a second messenger known to mediate vasodilation, I have examined the effect of adenosine on the intracellular concentration of cGMP in vascular smooth muscle cells from rat aorta. I found that adenosine at 10(-9) to 10(-5) M led to an increase in intracellular cGMP levels in a dose-dependent fashion. The effect of adenosine on cyclic guanosine inorganic monophosphate (cGMP) could be mimicked by the A-type receptor agonists N6-cyclohexyladenosine and 5'-N-ethylcarboxamidoadenosine and was attenuated by the A-receptor antagonist theophylline. The order of potency of the adenosine analogues was N6-cyclohexyladenosine greater than 5'-N-ethylcarboxamidoadenosine greater than adenosine. These findings suggest that the effect of adenosine on cGMPi is mediated by A1-type cell surface receptors. Concerning the mechanism by which adenosine could elevate cGMPi, I found that the effect of adenosine on cGMPi was potentiated by the cGMP phosphodiesterase-specific inhibitor M & B 22948. Moreover, I found that N6-cyclohexyladenosine, 5'-N-ethylcarboxamidoadenosine, and adenosine stimulated a guanylate cyclase in homogenates of the cultured smooth muscle cells in a dose-dependent fashion with the same order of potency as their effects on cGMPi. Further evidence was obtained to indicate that adenosine and its analogues stimulated a particulate guanylate cyclase activity, whereas they did not alter soluble guanylate cyclase activity. Since cGMP is known as a second messenger mediating relaxation of vascular smooth muscle cells, the results obtained in this study could suggest that adenosine exerts its vasorelaxing effect by activating an Ai-receptor-linked guanylate cyclase. 相似文献

The influence of cyclic 3',5'-guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) on the lipolytic and antilipolytic (inhibition of glucagon-stimulated lipolysis) responses to GH (1 microgram/ml) was examined in chicken adipose tissue in vitro. Both 8-bromo-cGMP (0.1 mM) and sodium nitroprusside (1 mM) (a guanyl cyclase stimulator) completely inhibited the lipolytic effect of GH. A cGMP-lowering agent, LY83583 (10 microM), reversed the inhibitory effect of sodium nitroprusside on GH-stimulated lipolysis. Furthermore, the suppressive effects of insulin (100 ng/ml), insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) (100 ng/ml), or insulin-like growth factor II (IGF-II/MSA) (100 ng/ml), but not somatostatin (1 ng/ml), on GH-stimulated lipolysis were prevented by LY83583 addition. Neither 8-bromo-cGMP, sodium nitroprusside, nor LY83583 altered GH-induced inhibition of glucagon (1 ng/ml)-stimulated lipolysis. It is proposed that cGMP may mediate inhibitory control of GH-stimulated lipolysis by insulin, IGF-I, and IGF-II in chicken adipose tissue. 相似文献

Ouabain-insensitive Na+-ATPase of proximal tubules is an effector for urodilatin and atrial natriuretic peptide 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

In the present paper we studied the effect of urodilatin and atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) on the proximal tubule Na+-ATPase and (Na+K+)ATPase activities. Urodilatin and ANP inhibit the Na+-ATPase activity but not the (Na+K+)ATPase activity. Maximal effect was observed at a concentration of 10(-11) M for both peptides. In this condition, the enzyme activity decreases from 10.8 +/- 1.6 (control) to 5.7 +/- 0.9 or 6.1 +/- 0.7 nmol Pi mg(-1) min(-1) in the presence of urodilatin or ANP, respectively. This effect was completely reversed by 10(-6) M LY83583, a guanylyl cyclase inhibitor, and mimicked by 10 nM cGMP. Furthermore, both ANP and urodilatin increase cGMP production by 33% and 49%, respectively. This is the first demonstration that it was shown that urodilatin and ANP directly modulate primary active sodium transport in the proximal tubule. The data obtained indicate that this effect is mediated by the activation of the NPR-A/guanylate cyclase/cGMP pathway. 相似文献

Role of cyclic GMP in atrial natriuretic factor stimulation of Na+,K+,Cl- cotransport in vascular smooth muscle cells 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) has been shown to bind to specific receptors on vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) and to cause an increase in intracellular cyclic GMP (cGMP) content. We have recently demonstrated that a prominent Na+,K+,Cl- cotransport system is present in VSMC and that a permeable cGMP analog (8-bromo-cGMP) stimulates activity of the cotransporter. We have also shown that the ANF peptide, rat atriopeptin III, stimulates Na+,K+,Cl- cotransport and elevates intracellular cGMP levels in VSMC. In the present study, we tested the hypothesis that ANF stimulation of Na+,K+,Cl- cotransport occurs via an increase in cGMP levels. When the quinolinedione, 6-anilo-5,8-quinolinedione (LY83583) (10 microM), was used to block formation of cGMP in VSMC from primary cultures of rat thoracic aorta, it was found that both basal and rat atriopeptin III (100 nM)-stimulated Na+,K+,Cl- cotransport were significantly inhibited. The effect of LY83583 was dose-dependent and the half-maximal inhibitory concentration was 0.5 microM. LY83583 also inhibited cotransport in the presence of a maximal concentration of 8-bromo-cGMP. However, this inhibition was not seen in cells also treated with 2-O-propoxyphenyl-8-azapurin-6-one (M&B 22,948), an inhibitor of cGMP phosphodiesterase. M&B 22,948 alone also increased levels of cotransport. Since inhibition of cGMP formation blocks ANF-stimulated Na+,K+,Cl- cotransport and inhibition of cGMP breakdown enhances Na+, K+, Cl- cotransport, we conclude that ANF stimulation of Na+,K+,Cl- cotransport in VSMC is mediated via increase in intracellular cGMP levels. 相似文献

The importance of endothelial cell contraction in the regulation of vascular biology is being increasingly recognized. Our group has demonstrated that reactive oxygen species, particularly hydrogen peroxide, which are released in pathological conditions such as ischemia-reperfusion, are able to induce contraction in bovine aortic endothelial cells (BAEC). The cGMP-dependent relaxation of contractile cells depends on the ability of the cyclic nucleotide to interfere with intracellular calcium; however, this is not the only mechanism involved. The present experiments were designed to analyse the mechanism by which cGMP induces relaxation in BAEC. Sodium nitroprusside (SNP), an activator of soluble guanylate cyclase, as well as atrial natriuretic (ANP) and C-type natriuretic (CNP) peptides, activators of particulate guanylate cyclase, blunted the hydrogen peroxide-induced contraction of BAEC and myosin light chain phosphorylation. The inhibitory effect was more marked with SNP and CNP than with ANP, and the action of SNP and CNP were partially reversed by blocking soluble and particulate guanylate cyclases, respectively. Dibutyryl cGMP (db-cGMP), a cGMP analogue, mimicked the effect of SNP and CNP. Cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinase (cGK) protein levels and activity were measured. Hydrogen peroxide induced a significant reduction in cGK activity without any change in protein level. This effect was completely reversed by preincubation with db-cGMP. Calyculin A, a myosin light chain phosphatase inhibitor, prevented the cGMP-induced relaxation of BAEC. SNP, CNP and db-cGMP also partially prevented the hydrogen peroxide-induced increase in intracellular calcium levels. Catalase completely blocked this effect. In summary, the present results support a role for those metabolites which activate guanylate cyclases in the relaxation of BAEC, and suggest that the cGMP-induced BAEC relaxation could be due, at least partially, to the stimulation of cGK and/or myosin light chain phosphatase activity, and to calcium blockade. 相似文献
