Previous studies suggest that epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) are vasodilators of the mesenteric artery; however, the production and regulation of EETs in the mesenteric artery remain unclear. The present study was designed 1) to determine which epoxygenase isoform may contribute to formation of EETs in mesenteric arteries and 2) to determine the regulation of mesenteric artery cytochrome P-450 (CYP) enzymes in obese Zucker rats. Microvessels were incubated with arachidonic acid, and CYP enzyme activity was determined. Mesenteric arteries demonstrate detectable epoxygenase and hydroxylase activities. Next, protein and mRNA expressions were determined in microvessels. Although renal microvessels express CYP2C23 mRNA and protein, mesenteric arteries lacked CYP2C23 expression. CYP2C11 and CYP2J mRNA and protein were expressed in mesenteric arteries and renal microvessels. In addition, mesenteric artery protein expression was evaluated in lean and obese Zucker rats. Compared with lean Zucker rats, mesenteric arterial CYP2C11 and CYP2J proteins were decreased by 38 and 43%, respectively, in obese Zucker rats. In contrast, soluble epoxide hydrolase mRNA and protein expressions were significantly increased in obese Zucker rat mesenteric arteries. In addition, nitric oxide-independent dilation evoked by acetylcholine was significantly attenuated in mesenteric arteries of obese Zucker rats. These data suggest that the main epoxygenase isoforms expressed in mesenteric arteries are different from those expressed in renal microvessels and that decreased epoxygenases and increased soluble epoxide hydrolase are associated with impaired mesenteric artery dilator function in obese Zucker rats. 相似文献

In this study, our aims were to investigate transient receptor potential melastatin-8 channels (TRPM8) involvement in rotundifolone induced relaxation in the mesenteric artery and to increase the understanding of the role of these thermosensitive TRP channels in vascular tissue. Thus, message and protein levels of TRPM8 were measured by semi-quantitative PCR and western blotting in superior mesenteric arteries from 12 week-old Spague-Dawley (SD) rats. Isometric tension recordings evaluated the relaxant response in mesenteric rings were also performed. Additionally, the intracellular Ca2+ changes in mesenteric artery myocytes were measured using confocal microscopy. Using PCR and western blotting, both TRPM8 channel mRNA and protein expression was measured in SD rat mesenteric artery. Rotundifolone and menthol induced relaxation in the isolated superior mesenteric artery from SD rats and improved the relaxant response induced by cool temperatures. Also, this monoterpene induced an increase in transient intracellular Ca2+. These responses were significantly attenuated by pretreatment with capsazepine or BCTC, both TRPM8 channels blockers. The response induced by rotundifolone was not significantly attenuated by ruthenium red, a non-selective TRP channels blocker, or following capsaicin-mediated desensitization of TRPV1. Our findings suggest that rotundifolone induces relaxation by activating TRPM8 channels in rat superior mesenteric artery, more selectively than menthol, the classic TRPM8 agonist, and TRPM8 channels participates in vasodilatory pathways in isolated rat mesenteric arteries. 相似文献

Arachidonic acid (AA) is a precursor of important vasoactive metabolites, but the role of AA-mediated vasodilation in Type 2 diabetes is not known. Using Zucker diabetic fatty (ZDF) rats, we examined the effects of AA in small mesenteric arteries preconstricted with endothelin. In ZDF rat mesenteric arteries, 1 microM AA produced only one-third the amount of dilation as in vessels from lean control animals. In lean control rats, the effect of AA was significantly and predominantly inhibited by the lipoxygenase inhibitors baicalein and cinnamyl-3,4-dihydroxy-cyanocinnamate (CDC). However, baicalein and CDC had no effect on AA-mediated dilation in ZDF rat mesenteric arteries. The major [3H]AA metabolite produced by isolated mesenteric arteries in both lean and ZDF rats was 12-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (12-HETE), but the amount of [3H]12-HETE produced by ZDF rat vessels was only 36% of that of control vessels. In addition, 12-HETE produced similar amounts of dilation in lean and ZDF rat mesenteric arteries. Immunoblot analysis showed an 81% reduction in 12-lipoxygenase protein in ZDF rat mesenteric arteries. Immunofluorescence labeling showed strong nitrotyrosine signals in ZDF rat mesenteric arteries that colocalized with 12-lipoxygenase in endothelium, and 12-lipoxygenase coprecipitation with anti-nitrotyrosine antibodies was enhanced in ZDF rat vessels. We conclude that AA-mediated relaxation in ZDF rat small mesenteric arteries is impaired due to reduced 12-lipoxygenase protein and activity. Increased oxidative stress and nitration of 12-lipoxygenase may underlie the impairment of AA-mediated relaxation in small mesenteric arteries of diabetic rats. 相似文献

The release of dilator agents from vascular endothelial cells is modulated by changes in cytosolic Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)). In this study, we demonstrate the presence of a Ca(2+)-permeable cation channel in inside-out membrane patches of endothelial cells isolated from small mesenteric arteries. The activity of the channel is increased by KT-5823, a highly selective inhibitor of protein kinase G (PKG), while it is decreased by direct application of active PKG. Application of KT-5823 induces Ca(2+) influx in the endothelial cells isolated from small mesenteric arteries, and it also causes endothelium-dependent relaxations in isolated small mesenteric arteries. KT-5823-induced relaxations in small mesenteric arteries are greatly reduced by 35 mM K(+) or 50 nM charybdotoxin + 50 nM apamin, suggesting that endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor (EDHF) is the participating dilator. The involvement of EDHF is further supported by experiments in which the relaxations of small mesenteric arteries are shown to be accompanied by membrane repolarization. These data strongly argue for a major role of a PKG-sensitive cation channel in modulating the release of EDHF from endothelial cells in rat small mesenteric arteries. 相似文献

We tested the hypothesis that dynamic exercise resets the operating point and attenuates the spontaneous gain of the arterial baroreflex regulation of mesenteric and hindlimb vascular conductance in hypertensive rats. Eleven adult male spontaneously hypertensive rats were chronically instrumented with left carotid arterial catheters and Doppler ultrasonic flow probes around the superior mesenteric and left common iliac arteries. After the rats recovered, arterial baroreflex function was examined by recording reflex changes in conductance in response to spontaneous changes in mean arterial pressure before exercise and during steady-state treadmill running at 6 and 18 m/min. Dynamic exercise reduced the spontaneous baroreflex gain of mesenteric conductance (by 51 and 36%) and maximum mesenteric conductance (by 24 and 32%) at 6 and 18 m/min, respectively. In sharp contrast, dynamic exercise increased the spontaneous maximum iliac conductance (by 32 and 47%) without changing the spontaneous gain. Sinoaortic denervation eliminated the relationship between mean arterial pressure and conductance by reducing the mesenteric (92%) and iliac (68%) vascular conductance gain. These results demonstrate that dynamic exercise has differential effects on the regulation of mesenteric and iliac vascular conductance in hypertensive rats. 相似文献

Experiments were carried out on anaesthetized cats to study the effect of somatostatin on the mesenteric circulation. Intraarterial infusions of somatostatin were applied into the superior mesenteric artery. The effect of atropine, propranolol and phentolamine were investigated. Catecholamine release or uptake of the mesenteric vascular bed during somatostatin infusions were also measured. We found dose dependent vasodilatory effect of somatostatin on the mesenteric vasculature that was not influenced by atropine and by the adrenoreceptors or by denervation. A direct effect of somatostatin on the vascular smooth muscle membrane is assumed. 相似文献

The hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN) is an important integrative center in the brain. In the present study, we investigated whether the PVN is a key region in the mesenteric vasoconstriction that normally accompanies an increase in core body temperature. Anesthetized rats were monitored for blood pressure, heart rate, mesenteric blood flow, and vascular conductance. In control rats, elevation of core body temperature to 41 degrees C had no significant effect on blood pressure, increased heart rate, and reduced mesenteric blood flow by 21%. In a separate group of rats, muscimol was microinjected bilaterally (1 nmol/side) into the PVN. Compared with the control group, there was no significant difference in the blood pressure and heart rate responses elicited by the increase in core body temperature. In contrast to control animals, however, mesenteric blood flow did not fall in the muscimol-treated rats in response to the elevation in core body temperature. In a separate group, in which muscimol was microinjected into regions outside the PVN, elevating core body temperature elicited the normal reduction in mesenteric blood flow. The results suggest that the PVN may play a key role in the reflex decrease in mesenteric blood flow elicited by hyperthermia. 相似文献

The aim of this work was to characterize the vasoactive effect of cholecystokinin on mesenteric vasculature. The mesenteric vascular bed of 3-month-old Sprague-Dawley rats was isolated and perfused at constant flow and changes in perfusion pressure monitored. CCK peptides lacked any direct contractile or relaxing effect on the mesenteric smooth muscle. Transmural nerve stimulation (TNS, 200 mA, 0.2 ms, 8 and 16 Hz) elicited an increase in perfusion pressure reflecting contraction of the bed and CCK inhibited neurogenic contractions elicited by 8 and 16 Hz TNS. The inhibition of neurogenic contractions was blocked by the CCK2 receptor (CCK2R) antagonist, L-365,260 (10 and 100 nM), but not by the CCK1R antagonist, SR-27897. The inhibition of neurogenic contractions was reversed by the non-specific NOS inhibitor, L-NAME as well as by the specific nNOS inhibitor, S-methyl-L-thiocitrulline. In whole-mount segments of mesenteric arteries, CCK2R was detected in the adventitia, in nerve terminals, where it co-localized with synaptophysin and nNOS. CCK-8 immunoreactive fibers were also detected. These results suggest that CCK mediates vasodilatation of the mesenteric vascular bed through the release of NO via its presynaptic CCK2R. Our findings provide, for the first time, a neural mechanism by which CCK may increase mesenteric blood flow. 相似文献

Different role of endothelium/nitric oxide in 17beta-estradiol- and progesterone-induced relaxation in rat arteries 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The present study was aimed to examine the different role of endothelium/nitric oxide in relaxation induced by two female sex hormones, 17beta-estradiol and progesterone in rat isolated aortas and mesenteric arteries. The isometric force of each ring was measured with Grass force-displacement transducers in the organ bathes. 17beta-Estradiol induced both endothelium-dependent and -independent relaxation in the rat aortas but only the endothelium-independent relaxation in the rat mesenteric arteries. In contrast. progesterone induced both endothelium-dependent and -independent relaxation in the rat mesenteric arteries but only endothelium-independent relaxation in rat aortas. N(G)-Nitro-L-arginine methyl ester and methylene blue attenuated the relaxant response to 17beta-estradiol in the aortic rings or to progesterone in the mesenteric arteries. Pretreatment with L-arginine antagonized the effect of N(G)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester on sex hormone-induced relaxation. The endothelium contribution to relaxation seems to only relate to lower concentrations of 17beta-estradiol and progesterone. In summary, the present results clearly demonstrate a different role of the functional endothelium in the relaxant response to 17beta-estradiol or progesterone in the conduit vessel (aorta) and the resistance vessels (mesenteric artery). Nitric oxide contributes largely to the endothelium-dependent relaxation induced by 17beta-estradiol in the isolated aortas or by progesterone in the mesenteric arteries. 相似文献

The mesenteric circulation is regulated by multiple mechanisms, there is sufficient reason to support the suspicion that local metabolic factors are especially important in the control of intestinal vasculature. Of these, adenosine, a purine nucleoside and mesenteric vasodilator, may be the messenger of the intestinal tissue to signal appropriate responses of the intestinal vessels. The evidence supporting the candidacy of the nucleoside as a local regular of mesenteric circulation may be summarized, as follows: Adenoside is present in the tissue of the gut in measurable quantities. Exogenous adenosine is a powerful dilator of mesenteric resistance vessels. Blockade of adenosine receptors in the mesenteric circulation interferes significantly with three autoregulatory phenomena, i.e., postprandial hyperemia, pressure-flow autoregulation, and reactive hyperemia. The evidence which weakens the role of adenosine as mesenteric vasoregulator includes: Findings in several reports that adenosine depressed intestinal oxygen consumption. The failure of adenosine receptors to inhibit some autoregulatory hyperemias of the gut and the rather limited amount of evidence regarding tissue adenosine release in autoregulatory responses of the gut's vasculature. 相似文献

Postnatal hemodynamic changes in very-low-birthweight infants. 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

The purpose of this study was to characterize postnatal changes in regional Doppler blood flow velocity (BFV) and cardiac function of very-low-birthweight infants and to examine factors that might influence these hemodynamic changes. Mean and end-diastolic BFV of the middle cerebral and superior mesenteric arteries, cardiac output, stroke volume, and fractional shortening were measured in 20 infants birthweight 1,002 +/- 173 g, gestational age 28 +/- 2 wk) at 6, 30, and 54 h after birth and before and after feedings on days 7 and 14. Postnatal increases in cerebral BFV, mesenteric BFV, and cardiac output were observed that were not associated with changes in blood pressure, hematocrit, pH, arterial PCO(2), or oxygen saturation. The postnatal pattern of relative vascular resistance (RVR) differed between the cerebral and mesenteric vasculatures. RVR decreased in the middle cerebral but not the superior mesenteric artery. Physiological patency of the ductus arteriosus did not alter postnatal hemodynamic changes. In response to feeding, mesenteric BFV and stroke volume increased, and mesenteric RVR and heart rate decreased. Postprandial responses were not affected by postnatal age or the age at which feeding was initiated. However, the initiation of enteral nutrition before 3 days of life was associated with higher preprandial mesenteric BFV and lower mesenteric RVR than was later initiation of feeding. We conclude that in very-low-birthweight infants over the first week of life 1) systemic, cerebral, and mesenteric hemodynamics exhibit region-specific changes; 2) asymptomatic ductus arteriosus patency and early feedings do not significantly influence these postnatal hemodynamic changes; and 3) cardiac function adapts to increase local mesenteric BFV in response to feedings. 相似文献

It has been previously shown in anesthetized pigs that intravenous infusion of 2 microg/h of 17beta-estradiol primarily dilated renal, iliac and coronary circulations, while higher doses of the hormone were required to cause vasodilation also in the mesenteric vascular bed. In the same experimental model, a tonic beta2-adrenoceptor mediated vasodilation, which could be argued to attenuate the vasodilator effect of 17beta-estradiol, has been described. The present study was planned to investigate the role of beta2-adrenergic receptors in the hemodynamic responses of renal and mesenteric vascular beds to 17beta-estradiol. Changes in flow caused by intravenous infusion of 2 microg/h of the hormone at constant heart rate and aortic blood pressure in the left renal and superior mesenteric arteries were assessed using electromagnetic flowmeters. In six pigs, infusion of 17beta-estradiol caused an increase in renal blood flow, which averaged 12.1% of the control values, without affecting mesenteric blood flow. In the same pigs, after hemodynamic variables had returned to the baseline values, blockade of beta2-adrenergic receptors with butoxamine caused an increase in aortic blood pressure and an increase in renal and mesenteric resistance. The subsequent infusion of 17beta-estradiol elicited increases in renal and mesenteric blood flow which respectively averaged 19.6% and 12.8%. Therefore, the present study in anesthetized pigs have shown that the vasodilator responses of the renal and mesenteric circulations to 17beta-estradiol were attenuated and even masked by a tonic beta2-adrenoceptor mediated vasodilation. This indicates that some vasodilator effects elicited by normally used replacement doses of the hormone may not be apparent. 相似文献

Generation of a prostaglandin of the F series by bovine mesenteric veins in response to bradykinin may depend on increased synthesis of PGE and conversion of the latter to PGF after activation of PGE 9-ketoreductase by the kinin. The prostaglandin then mediates the constrictor action of bradykinin on the bovine mesenteric vein. A high speed supernatant (HSS) fraction of bovine mesenteric blood vessels contains the highest activity of PGE 9-ketoreductase. Incubation of PGE2 with HSS at 37°C in the presence of a NADPH generating system resulted in time-dependent conversion of PGE2 to PGF2α. Bradykinin (0.01mM) more than doubled conversion of PGE2 to PGF2α by the PGE 9-ketoreductase obtained from mesenteric veins whereas the kinin had little effect on enzymic activity of the HSS fraction of mesenteric arteries. However, after inhibition of kininase catabolism, bradykinin increased PGE 9-ketoreductase activity of arteries and veins to the same degree.Prostaglandin release from veins by bradykinin appears essential to contraction of mesenteric venous strips evoked by the polypeptide as indomethacin treatment abolished this effect. PGE 9-ketoreductase may be an important prostaglandin regulatory mechanism of the vascular wall whereby the functional consequences of changes in rates of prostaglandin synthesis are governed by determining the ratio of PGE to PGF within vascular tissue. Constriction of bovine mesenteric veins evoked by bradykinin may, therefore, depend on increased prostaglandin synthesis and conversion of newly formed PGE to PGF, both steps being affected by the kinin. 相似文献

Mesenteric adipose tissue, located in the mesenterium of the intestines, is believed to play a central role in the development of obesity-related diseases. We have found that mesenteric fat samples harvested from rodents are frequently of poor quality, exhibiting partly degraded RNA. To investigate the background for this observation, we screened adipose tissue samples from two independent studies on rodents for markers of different tissues and cell types. We found that mesenteric adipose tissue samples of low quality are "contaminated" by pancreatic tissue. To locate the affected area, we dissected the mesenteric fat depots from 14 mice and measured abundance of pancreas-specific gene expression and amylase activity. As expected, we observed that the proximal section of the mesenterium, located near the pancreas, expressed pancreatic markers, whereas the distal sections did not. Approximately one-third of the mesenteric adipose tissue depots contained pancreatic tissue. Because the boundary between pancreas and mesenteric fat cannot be easily distinguished during dissection, we conclude that investigators should routinely exclude the proximal section of the mesenteric adipose tissue depot to avoid pancreatic contamination. 相似文献

Crohn??s disease (CD) is a chronic intestinal disease with a multifactorial etiology. Recently, a role for mesenteric fat has been proposed in CD pathophysiology, since fat hypertrophy is detected close to the affected intestinal area; however, there are few studies regarding autophagy and the hypertrophied mesenteric tissue in CD. To evaluate autophagy-related proteins in intestinal mucosae and mesenteric fat of patients with CD and controls, patients with ileocecal CD (CD Group) and with non-inflammatory disease (FC Group) selected for surgery were studied. Expression of LC3-II was determined by immunoblotting of protein extracts. In addition, beclin-1, LC3 and Atg16-L1 RNA levels were measured using RT-PCR. The expression of LC3-II was significantly lower in the mesenteric tissue and higher in intestinal mucosae of CD when compared to controls. However, mRNA expression of autophagy-related proteins was similar when comparing the mesenteric fat groups. These findings suggest a defect in autophagy activation in the mesenteric fat tissue of CD individuals, which could be involved in the maintenance of the inflammatory process. 相似文献

The vascular actions of ethanol on feline middle cerebral and mesenteric arteries were investigated in vitro. Ethanol (20-500 mM) caused potent contraction in cerebral arteries, but it contracted the mesenteric arteries only weakly. In the middle cerebral artery (but not in the mesenteric artery) ethanol (300 mM) potentiated the noradrenaline (5.10(-6) M) induced contractions. Antiserum for endothelin (in an appropriate concentration to inhibit endothelin-induced contraction; 0.02 mg/ml) did not inhibit the ethanol-induced contractions. Endothelium-dependent relaxations induced by acetylcholine and ATP were also affected by ethanol (300 mM); in the cerebral artery acetylcholine- but not ATP-induced relaxations, whereas in the mesenteric artery ATP- but not acetylcholine-induced relaxations were inhibited significantly. The results suggest that ethanol causes strong (endothelin-independent) contraction and facilitates the response to noradrenaline in the middle cerebral, but not in the mesenteric artery; and it selectively inhibits endothelium-dependent relaxation. These actions of ethanol may contribute to the development of vascular diseases. 相似文献

In the mesenteric circulation of the rat a myogenic autoregulatory system operates at 0.1-0.15 Hz. Negative admittance phase in the region above 0.2 Hz suggested operation of an arterial baroreflex. The present study was designed to test this interpretation and to identify the neurotransmitter involved. In rats anesthetized with isoflurane, blood pressure and mesenteric blood flow (transit time ultrasound) were measured with central mechanisms intact, after sinoaortic denervation, and after denervation of the mesenteric bed. Sinoaortic denervation abrogated the negative phase in the band from 0.3 to 0.6 Hz and increased admittance gain in this region. Subsequent mesenteric denervation had no further effect on the pressure-flow transfer function. In a separate experiment, alpha1-adrenergic blockade reduced, but did not remove, the negative admittance phase in the 0.2- to 0.5-Hz band without altering admittance gain. It is concluded that the baroreflex acting on the mesenteric circulation can be identified by admittance phase, but that admittance gain is uninformative. Part of the response is mediated by alpha1-adrenergic transmission. 相似文献
