Serelaxin Elicits Bronchodilation and Enhances β-Adrenoceptor-Mediated Airway Relaxation
Treatment with β-adrenoceptor agonists does not fully overcome the symptoms associated with severe asthma. Serelaxin elicits potent uterine and vascular relaxation via its cognate receptor, RXFP1, and nitric oxide (NO) signaling, and is being clinically evaluated for the treatment of acute heart failure. However, its direct bronchodilator efficacy has yet to be explored. Tracheal rings were pre...
متن کاملβ-Adrenoceptor-Mediated Relaxation of Carbachol-Pre-Contracted Mouse Detrusor.
AIMS To study the β-adrenoceptor subtypes involved in the relaxation responses to (-)-isoprenaline in carbachol-pre-contracted (CCh) mouse detrusor muscle with intact and denuded mucosa. METHODS Isolated muscle strips from the urinary bladder of male C57BL6 mice or β2-adrenoceptor knockout mice were pre-contracted with CCh, 1 µM and relaxed with increasing concentrations of the β-adrenoceptor...
متن کاملSUPPRESSION OF VLDL-TRIACYLGLYCEROL SECRETION B Y BOTH α AND β-ADRENOCEPTOR AGONISTS IN ISOLATED RAT HEPATOCYTES
The effects of alpha and beta-adrenergic stimulation on triacylglycerol secretion were investigated in isolated rat hepatocytes. Epinephrine within 3h of incubation suppressed triacylglycerol secretion by 35% and increased its cellular content by 18%. The inhibitory effect of epinephrine was abolished by inclusion of phentolamine and also prazosin but not with propranolol. Trifluoperazine c...
متن کاملβ-Adrenoceptor-mediated Relaxation of Urinary Bladder Muscle in β2-Adrenoceptor Knockout Mice
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE In order to characterize the β-adrenoceptor (AR) subtypes involved in agonist-stimulated relaxation of murine urinary bladder we studied the effects of (-)-isoprenaline and CL 316,243 on tonic contraction and spontaneous contractions in detrusor strips of wild-type (WT) and β2-AR knockout (β2-AR KO) mice. MATERIALS AND METHODS Urinary bladders were isolated from male ...
متن کاملβ-Adrenoceptor subtypes and cAMP role in adrenaline- and noradrenaline-induced relaxation in the rat thoracic aorta
Object We identified the β-adrenoceptor (β-AR) subtypes responsible for the relaxant responses to adrenaline (AD) and noradrenaline (NA) in the rat thoracic aorta and examined the role of cAMP which is involved in these relaxant responses. Methods The effects of β-AR antagonists or the adenylyl cyclase inhibitor SQ 22,536 on AD- and NA-induced relaxant responses in phenylephrine-induced contrac...
