Sympathetic nervous system-dependent vasoconstriction in humans. Evidence for mechanistic role of endogenous purine compounds.
Purine compounds modulate sympathetic neurotransmission; this modulation decreases nervous discharge by stimulating presynaptic inhibitory adenosine receptors, an effect antagonized by theophylline, and causes vasoconstriction through the stimulation of postsynaptic ATP receptors. In humans we evaluated the effect of local theophylline, which was infused into the brachial artery at the rate of ...

متن کاملMeasuring and quantifying skin sympathetic nervous system activity in humans.
Development of the technique of microneurography has substantially increased our understanding of the function of the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) in health and in disease. The ability to directly record signals from peripheral autonomic nerves in conscious humans allows for qualitative and quantitative characterization of SNS responses to specific stimuli and over time. Furthermore, distin...
متن کاملThe inhibitory role of sympathetic nervous system in the Ca2+-dependent proteolysis of skeletal muscle.
Mammalian cells contain several proteolytic systems to carry out the degradative processes and complex regulatory mechanisms to prevent excessive protein breakdown. Among these systems, the Ca2+-activated proteolytic system involves the cysteine proteases denoted calpains, and their inhibitor, calpastatin. Despite the rapid progress in molecular research on calpains and calpastatin, the physiol...
متن کاملRole of sympathetic nervous system and neuropeptides in obesity hypertension.
Obesity is the most common cause of human essential hypertension in most industrialized countries. Although the precise mechanisms of obesity hypertension are not fully understood, considerable evidence suggests that excess renal sodium reabsorption and a hypertensive shift of pressure natriuresis play a major role. Sympathetic activation appears to mediate at least part of the obesity-induced ...
