Diabetes potentiates acetylcholine-induced relaxation in rabbit renal arteries.
The response of rabbit renal arteries to acetylcholine and its endothelial modulation in diabetes were investigated. Acetylcholine induced concentration-related endothelium-dependent relaxation of renal arteries that was significantly more potent in diabetic rabbits than in control rabbits. Pretreatment with N(G)-nitro-L-arginine (L-NOArg), indomethacin, or L-NOArg plus indomethacin induced par...
متن کاملAcute administration of GPR40 receptor agonist potentiates glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in vivo in the rat.
Recently, several in vitro studies have shown that GPR40 receptor activation by free fatty acids (FFAs) results in glucose-dependent insulin secretion. However, whether GPR40 receptor activation results in glucose-dependent insulin secretion in vivo in rats is not known. Therefore, we evaluated the effect of synthetic GPR40 receptor agonist (compound 1) on glucose tolerance test (GTT) in fed, f...
متن کاملStimulation of chloride secretion by P1 purinoceptor agonists in cystic fibrosis phenotype airway epithelial cell line CFPEo-.
1. P1 purinoceptor agonists like adenosine have been shown to stimulate Cl- transport in secretory epithelia. In the present study, we investigated whether P1 agonist-induced Cl- secretion is preserved in cystic fibrosis airway epithelium and which signalling mechanism is involved. The effects of purinoceptor agonists on Cl- secretion were examined in a transformed cystic fibrosis airway phenot...
متن کاملNeuregulin-1 potentiates agrin-induced acetylcholine receptor clustering through muscle-specific kinase phosphorylation.
At neuromuscular synapses, neural agrin (n-agrin) stabilizes embryonic postsynaptic acetylcholine receptor (AChR) clusters by signalling through the muscle-specific kinase (MuSK) complex. Live imaging of cultured myotubes showed that the formation and disassembly of primitive AChR clusters is a dynamic and reversible process favoured by n-agrin, and possibly other synaptic signals. Neuregulin-1...
متن کاملAcute but not chronic metabolic acidosis potentiates the acetylcholine-induced reduction in blood pressure: an endothelium-dependent effect.
Metabolic acidosis has profound effects on vascular tone. This study investigated the in vivo effects of acute metabolic acidosis (AMA) and chronic metabolic acidosis (CMA) on hemodynamic parameters and endothelial function. CMA was induced by ad libitum intake of 1% NH4Cl for 7 days, and AMA was induced by a 3-h infusion of 6 M NH4Cl (1 mL/kg, diluted 1:10). Phenylephrine (Phe) and acetylcholi...
