OBJECTIVE Thrombin is implicated in the genesis of arrhythmias and activation of thrombin receptors exacerbated ventricular arrhythmias following coronary artery ligation. The present study was designed to investigate the possible protective effect of the protease-activated receptor-1 antagonist, SCH79797 against ischemia and reperfusion arrhythmias in the rat heart. MATERIALS AND METHODS Hea...
Adaptation of the cerebral circulation to microgravity was investigated in rat middle cerebral arteries after 20 days of hindlimb unweighting (HU). Myogenic responses were measured in isolated, pressurized arteries from HU and control animals. Maximal passive lumen diameters, obtained in the absence of extracellular Ca2+ plus EDTA, were not significantly different between groups (249 vs. 258 mi...
Metabolic and vascular factors have been invoked in the pathogenesis of diabetic neuropathy but their interrelationships are poorly understood. Both aldose reductase inhibitors and vasodilators improve nerve conduction velocity, blood flow, and (Na+,K+)-ATPase activity in the streptozotocin diabetic rat, implying a metabolic-vascular interaction. NADPH is an obligate cofactor for both aldose re...
1. Small arteries were isolated from either rat mesentery or human subcutaneous fat, and mounted in a myograph for the measurement of isometric force. 2. Superoxide dismutase, either in the presence or absence of catalase, relaxed noradrenaline-induced tone. This effect was abolished by removal of the endothelium or incubation with an inhibitor of NO synthase, N-omega-nitro-L-arginine methyl es...
Recent studies show that pulmonary vasodilator responses to nitrite are enhanced by hypoxia. However, the mechanism by which nitrite is converted to vasoactive nitric oxide (NO) is uncertain. In the present study, intravenous injections of sodium nitrite decreased pulmonary and systemic arterial pressures and increased cardiac output. The decreases in pulmonary arterial pressure were enhanced w...
CONTEXT Intestinal inflammation can induce a local reduction in oxygen levels that triggers an adaptive response centered on the expression of hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs). Nitric oxide, a well-described inflammatory mediator, may interfere with hypoxia signaling. OBJECTIVES We aimed to evaluate the role of nitric oxide in hypoxia signaling during colonic inflammation. METHODS Colitis w...
The aim of the present study was to investigate the role of the ANG-(1-7) receptor (Mas) and nitric oxide (NO) in pacing postconditiong (PPC)-mediated cardioprotection against ischemia-reperfusion injury. Cardiac contractility and hemodynamics were assessed using a modified Langendorff system, cardiac damage was assessed by measuring infarct size and creatinine kinase levels, and levels of phos...
We have previously shown that estrogen exerts a vasoprotective effect by accelerating reendothelialization after perivascular artery injury through activation of the estrogen receptor alpha. Because 17beta-estradiol (E2) is known to increase the bioavailability of nitric oxide, in this study, we used the same perivascular model to characterize the role of the endothelial nitric oxide synthase (...
Deep inspirations (DI) have been shown to have both bronchoprotective and bronchodilator effects in healthy subjects. The bronchodilator effects of a DI appear to be impaired in asthmatics compared with healthy subjects. This study investigated the role of nitric oxide (NO) in the bronchodilator role of a DI. In five anaesthetised and ventilated dogs, high-resolution computed tomography was use...
Temperature conditioning of nasal air: effects of vasoactive agents and involvement of nitric oxide.
Nitric oxide (NO) is released into nasal air, but its function is unknown. We hypothesized that nasal vascular tone and/or flow influences temperature conditioning of nasal air and that NO participates in this process. We measured nasal air temperature (via a thermocouple) and exhaled nasal NO release (by chemiluminescence) in five humans and examined the effects of an aerosolized vasoconstrict...
