Augmented contributions of voltage-gated Ca2+ channels to contractile responses in spontaneously hypertensive rat mesenteric arteries.

The observation that organic Ca2+ channel blockers are more effective in lowering blood pressure and peripheral resistance in hypertensive compared to normotensive subjects suggests that there is a greater contribution from voltage-gated Ca2+ channels (CaL) to vascular force maintenance in hypertensive arteries. This study tests this hypothesis by comparing the effects of Bay k 8644 and nisoldi...

Activation of a muscarinic receptor selectively inhibits a rapidly inactivated Ca2+ current in rat sympathetic neurons.

Sympathetic neurons dissociated from the superior cervical ganglion of 2-day-old rats were studied by whole-cell patch clamp and by fura-2 measurements of the cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration, [Ca2+]i. Step depolarizations in the presence of tetrodotoxin and hexamethonium triggered two Ca2+ currents that differed in the voltage dependence of activation and kinetics of inactivation. These curre...

Twenty-four-hour exposure to altered blood flow modifies endothelial Ca2+-activated K+ channels in rat mesenteric arteries.

We tested the hypothesis that changes in arterial blood flow modify the function of endothelial Ca2+-activated K+ channels [calcium-activated K+ channel (K(Ca)), small-conductance calcium-activated K+ channel (SK3), and intermediate calcium-activated K+ channel (IK1)] before arterial structural remodeling. In rats, mesenteric arteries were exposed to increased [+90%, high flow (HF)] or reduced ...

Positive feedback regulation of agonist-stimulated endothelial Ca2+ dynamics by KCa3.1 channels in mouse mesenteric arteries.

OBJECTIVE Intermediate and small conductance KCa channels IK1 (KCa3.1) and SK3 (KCa2.3) are primary targets of endothelial Ca(2+) signals in the arterial vasculature, and their ablation results in increased arterial tone and hypertension. Activation of IK1 channels by local Ca(2+) transients from internal stores or plasma membrane channels promotes arterial hyperpolarization and vasodilation. H...

Upregulation of L-type Ca2+ channels in mesenteric and skeletal arteries of SHR.

An increased Ca2+ influx attributed to dihydropyridine-sensitive L-type Ca2+ channels has been demonstrated in mesenteric vascular smooth muscle cells of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). This study examined whether an upregulation of the pore-forming alpha1C subunit of the L-type Ca2+ channel underlies this ionic defect. With the use of mesenteric arcade arteries from 12- to 16-week-old S...
