This study determined the role of nitric oxide (NO) in neurogenic vasodilation in mesenteric resistance arteries of the toad, Bufo marinus. Nitric oxide synthase (NOS) was anatomically demonstrated only in perivascular nerves but not the endothelium. Acetylcholine (ACh) and nicotine caused tetrodotoxin (TTX)-sensitive neurogenic vasodilation of mesenteric arteries. The ACh-induced vasodilation ...
Decreased peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) activity is thought to have a major role in preeclampsia through abnormal placental development. However, the role of PPARγ in adaptation of the uteroplacental vasculature that may lead to placental hypoperfusion and fetal growth restriction during pregnancy is not known. Here, pregnant Sprague-Dawley rats (n = 11/group) were tr...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Anandamide is an endocannabinoid that evokes hypotension by interaction with peripheral cannabinoid CB1 receptors and with the perivascular transient receptor potential vanilloid type 1 protein (TRPV1). As anandamide has been implicated in the vasodilated state in advanced cirrhosis, the study investigated whether the mesenteric bed from cirrhotic rats has an altered and sel...
Neonatal sympathectomy of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and control Wistar-Kyoto rats (WKY) was performed by a combined treatment with antiserum to nerve growth factor and guanethidine during the first 4 weeks after birth. The development of hypertension was completely prevented in the treated SHR: at 28 to 30 weeks of age, systolic blood pressure of treated SHR was 139 +/- 2 mm Hg as c...
We compared endothelial responses to calcium-mobilizing agents in mesenteric and cerebral resistance arteries of the rat. Middle cerebral and small mesenteric arteries were mounted in a pressure myograph, and myogenic responses were recorded. The effects of acetylcholine (ACh), bradykinin, substance P, histamine, A23187, cyclopiazonic acid (CPA), and sodium nitroprusside were investigated in bo...
Neonatal sympathectomy using a combined treatment with antiserum to nerve growth factor and guanethidine during the first 4 weeks after birth was carried out in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats. Bilateral adrenal demedullation was performed in 4-week-old sympathectomized SHR and WKY rats. The development of hypertension in SHR was prevented by sympa...
The present study tested the hypothesis that spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) have impaired nitric oxide synthase (NOS)-mediated regulation of vascular function versus Wistar-Kyoto rats (WKY). Aorta and small mesenteric arteries were studied from male and female SHR (M SHR and F SHR) and WKY (M WKY and F WKY). Phenylephrine (PE)-induced vasoconstriction was greater in aorta of M SHR versus...
Increased mechanical stress/hypertension in the vessel wall triggers the hypertrophic signaling pathway, resulting in structural remodeling of vasculature. Vascular hypertrophy of resistance vessels leads to reduced compliance and elevation of blood pressure. We showed before that increased expression of profilin1 protein in the medial layer of the aorta induces stress fiber formation, triggeri...
BACKGROUND In a previous study, we found that neonatal sympathectomy prevented the development of angiotensin II (ANG II)-induced hypertension but not the development of structural changes in small mesenteric arteries. OBJECTIVES To investigate further the dissociation between hypertension and structural vascular changes in sympathectomized ANG II-treated rats by extending morphometric measur...
In arterioles, aldosterone counteracts the rapid dilatation (recovery) following depolarization-induced contraction. The hypothesis was tested that this effect of aldosterone depends on cyclooxygenase (COX)-derived products and/or nitric oxide (NO) synthase (NOS) inhibition. Recovery of the response to high K(+) was observed in mesenteric arteries of wild-type and COX-2(-/-) mice but it was sig...
