Do cholinergic nerves innervating rat mesenteric arteries regulate vascular tone?
Vascular blood vessels have various types of cholinergic acetylcholine receptors (AChR), but the source of ACh has not been confirmed. Perivascular adrenergic nerves and nonadrenergic calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP)-containing (CGRPergic) nerves innervate rat mesenteric arteries and regulate vascular tone. However, function of cholinergic innervation remains unknown. The present study in...
متن کاملCholinergic innervation of human mesenteric lymphatic vessels.
BACKGROUND The cholinergic neurotransmission within the human mesenteric lymphatic vessels has been poorly studied. Therefore, our aim is to analyse the cholinergic nerve fibres of lymphatic vessels using the traditional enzymatic techniques of staining, plus the biochemical modifications of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity. MATERIALS AND METHODS Specimens obtained from human mesenteric l...
متن کاملRelaxatory Effect of Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid (GABA) is Mediated by Same Pathway in Diabetic and Normal Rat Mesenteric Bed vessel
Objective(s) Diabetes related dysfunction of resistance vessels is associated with vascular occlusive diseases. Vasorelaxant agents may have a role in control of diabetic cardiovascular complications. Gamma aminobutyric acid (GABA) has demonstrated to cause vasorelaxation. The present study was designed to determine i) the vasorelaxatory effect of GABA on diabetic vessels and ii) the role of e...
متن کاملOxytocin does not directly affect vascular tone in vessels from nonpregnant and pregnant rats.
Recent evidence suggests oxytocin (OT) may regulate vascular tone. OT and its receptor (OTR) have been identified in the rat heart and great vessels. Expression of OT and OTR is increased in some tissues during pregnancy. We hypothesized that the OT/OTR system may be a physiological regulator of vascular tone and mediate the decreased vascular resistance noted during pregnancy. Using a wire myo...
متن کاملAdrenergic stimulation-released histamine taken-up in adrenergic nerves induces endothelium-dependent vasodilation in rat mesenteric resistance arteries.
The present study investigated whether histamine was taken up by perivascular adrenergic nerves and released by periarterial nerve stimulation (PNS) to induce vascular responses. In rat mesenteric vascular beds treated with capsaicin to eliminate calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP)ergic vasodilation and with active tone, PNS (1 - 4 Hz) induced only adrenergic nerve-mediated vasoconstriction....
