Contractility of intrarenal arteries in Goldblatt hypertensive rabbits.
The present investigation contractile responses of microdissected intrarenal arcuate arteries from sham-operated rabbits and two-kidney, one clip Goldblatt hypertensive rabbits at 2 and 12 weeks after procedure. Arcuate arteries from both kidneys of the sham-operated rabbits and stenotic and nonstenotic kidneys of the Goldblatt hypertensive rabbits were studied. Mean arterial blood pressures of...
متن کاملEffects of ouabain and low sodium on contractility of human resistance arteries.
Earlier work with rat arteries has resulted in a widely held assumption that resistance artery smooth muscle will not contract on exposure to a reduced transplasmalemmal sodium gradient. In view of the well-recognized low sensitivity of rat tissue to cardiac glycosides, we have investigated the effects of altering the transplasmalemmal sodium gradient on vascular smooth muscle tone by using hum...
متن کاملTransient Receptor Potential Canonical Type 3 Channels Control the Vascular Contractility of Mouse Mesenteric Arteries
Transient receptor potential canonical type 3 (TRPC3) channels are non-selective cation channels and regulate intracellular Ca2+ concentration. We examined the role of TRPC3 channels in agonist-, membrane depolarization (high K+)-, and mechanical (pressure)-induced vasoconstriction and vasorelaxation in mouse mesenteric arteries. Vasoconstriction and vasorelaxation of endothelial cells intact m...
متن کاملElasticity, unexpected contractility and the identification of actin and myosin in lobster arteries.
Lobster arteries, which exhibit non-uniform elasticity when stretched, have a trilaminar organization. The inner layer is an elastic connective tissue and the outer layer is a collagenous connective tissue; the middle layer of an artery is an aggregation of cells containing microfilaments. Arterial cells possess actin, myosin and tropomyosin. Except for the dorsal abdominal artery, striated mus...
متن کاملIntracellular sodium, membrane potential, and contractility of rat mesenteric small arteries.
We have investigated effects of altered extracellular sodium, intracellular sodium concentration, and membrane potential on the contractile responses of rat isolated mesenteric small arteries (internal diameter ca. 200 microns), when mounted as ring preparations on an isometric myograph. To avoid possible neural effects, all vessels were denervated in vitro using 6-hydroxydopamine. In unstimula...
